Biography

Dartmouth College - Sociology

Professor of Sociology, Dartmouth College
Higher Education
John L.
Campbell
United States
I do research and teach in the areas of comparative political economy, and political and economic sociology. My focus is primarily on advanced capitalist societies. I have published several books, over 70 refereed articles and chapters, and dozens of reviews and commentaries.

My early books include: Collapse of an Industry: Nuclear Power and the Contradictions of U.S. Policy (Cornell University Press, 1988), Governance of the American Economy (Cambridge University Press, 1991), Legacies of Change: Transformations of East European Political Economies (Aldine Press, 1997), The Rise of Neoliberalism and Institutional Analysis (Princeton University Press, 2001), Institutional Change and Globalization (Princeton University Press, 2004), National Identity and the Varieties of Capitalism: The Danish Experience (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2006), and The Oxford Handbook of Comparative Institutional Analysis (Oxford University Press, 2010).

My most recent books are The National Origins of Policy Ideas: Knowledge Regimes in the United States, France, Germany and Denmark (Princeton University Press, 2014), The World of States (Bloomsbury Press, 2015), The Paradox of Vulnerability: States, Nationalism and the Financial Crisis (Princeton University Press, 2017), and American Discontent: The Rise of Donald Trump and Decline of the Golden Age (Oxford University Press, 2018).

I am currently writing a book on the increasing instability of capitalism entitled Capitalism Today: The Forgotten Lessons of Great Economists (Cambridge University Press, 2020).

I have also served on and chaired a number of university committees.
