      abstract = {Much has been written in recent years on ‘local state  corporatism’, centre-region relations, government and  enterprise reform and on sustainable rural and agricultural  development in China. Based on some of the theoretical  underpinnings of this literature, and on extensive  fieldwork in the full range of administrative levels, this  paper presents an institutional approach to one Chinese  rural industry. For a number of reasons, the Chinese cattle  and beef industry serves as a highly revealing case study.  While the industry only began developing along commercial  lines in the 1990s, institutional forces have been  instrumental, and perhaps more important than market  forces, in forging the industry along its particular  development path. The paper highlights the way by which  institutions have affected particular development issues in  the industry.},
