Abstract:
Order at the Bazaar delves into the role of bazaars in the political economy and development of Central Asia. Bazaars are the economic bedrock for many throughout the region--they are the entrepreneurial hubs of Central Asia. However, they are often...Review: " Order at the Bazaar is an informative and innovative analysis of the political economy of bazaar markets in Kyrgyzstan. Based on rich data from the field, Spector provides an analysis of Kyrgyzstan's on-going post-Soviet economic transition. Order at the Bazaar will appeal to students, scholars of the region, and political scientists concerned with weak and/or failing states." --Michele E. Commercio, University of Vermont, author of Russian Minority Politics in Post-Soviet Latvia and Kyrgyzstan " Order at the Bazaar is an excellent book that draws big insights from a localized and usually neglected research site. Regine A. Spector uses bazaars--in some ways a microcosm of the economy of a troubled, dysfunctional country--to provide a fascinating ethnography of postcommunism and Central Asia, while making valuable contributions to debates about political economy, economic transition, formal and informal institutions, strategic action, corruption, and moral economy.
