Acemoglu and Robinson's "inclusiveness-absorptive" institutional dichotomy
a core comparative political economy paradigm
faces theoretical dilemmas explaining sustained growth of East Asian economies like China. This stems from its static
adversarial view neglecting dynamicstate-market interaction. We propose "development synergy"—a meso-level concept where development-oriented state power forms strategic synergy with market entities via goal setting
resource mobilization
and adaptive learning to drive industrial upgrading. Using China's new energy vehicle industry as a case
we demonstrate the "goal-resource-learning" mechanism. This study adds the "synergy" dimension to enrich explanations for China's practices and latecomer development paths.
