"Quiet Politics is a roaring affirmation of the intellectual power that is generated by combining impressive theoretical sophistication with enormous empirical depth and great political acumen. These days, our debates about the politics of capitalism are noisy and shallow. All serious students of political economy will benefit from some quiet hours chewing on and digesting the intellectual feast that this book offers."

Peter J. Katzenstein, Cornell University

"Professor Culpepper's insightful analysis exposes a hidden dynamic that shapes takeover regulation in a diverse group of capitalist democracies: managers make the rules while politicians are not watching. Quiet Politics will change how readers think about the buying and selling of companies, and the process of regulating the market for corporate control."

"This is a deeply challenging and provocative book, with implications for the study of the interrelationship of advanced capitalism and democratic politics far wider than just for corporate governance - interesting and important though Culpepper's analyses are of the changing regulatory frameworks of the markets for corporate control in France, Germany, Japan and the Netherlands. Culpepper argues with detailed empirical plausibility that democracy can only impose change in technical policy debates if they are of high salience - otherwise business wins, and especially in areas of relatively informal regulation. Culpepper thus shows how governments can sometimes win but how business normally does. A subversive and very illuminating book to stir up comparative political economy."

"A remarkable book.... This is first-class qualitative social science, using an alternating process of deductive and inductive reasoning to tease out hypotheses and test them against case study evidence. Lucidly written and persuasively argued, Culpepper convincingly challenges a host of existing approaches to the study of corporate governance and business power, while making his core topic of corporate control of great interest to specialists and accessible to those more interested in his theory.
