      abstract = {This book examines the national automotive policy in  Malaysia to help readers gain an understanding of the  countrys industrial policy-making processes. Addressing a  gap in analysis of the political economy of the national  automotive policy, the research presented combines the new  institutional theory and the developmental state approach  to provide new insights into elite policymakers measures to  shield domestic automotive enterprises from pro-market  reforms. The formation of the national car project marks a  turning point for Malaysia's industrial development as a  country, which it envisions will lead to it becoming a  major player in the global automotive market. However, the  domestic institutional factors embedded in ethno-economic  interests and patronage constrain national car-makers,  limiting their potential to grow, and instead causing a  slowdown in the industry. Allowing readers to understand  the background to Malaysias heavy industrialisation  programme and the birth of its national car projects, this  book critically discusses the significance of institutional  context in policy outcomes, and highlights how institutions  and policies have impact growth or decline. It is a  valuable resource relevant to analysts, researchers and  students who are interested in the political economy of the  national industrial policy and automotive industry in  Malaysia and beyond.},
