Professor Opper’s work focuses on explanations of institutional change, the interplay between networks and institutions, and social heuristics of strategic decisions. In her empirical work she focuses on China’s post-reform economy. Professor Opper’s last book Capitalism from Below: Markets and Institutional Change in China (2012, Harvard University Press) develops a theory of bottom-up institutional change explaining how individual actors in China were able to de-couple from state laws and regulations and build capitalist institutions while relying on social norms and informal entrepreneurial networks. The book received the 2013 Academy of Management George R. Terry award for the book that has most advanced management knowledge in the last two years, the 2013 Axiom Business book award for the best book in international business and globalization, and was named a Choice Outstanding Academic Title in 2012. Professor Opper’s research articles have been published across the social science disciplines including Economics, Management, Sociology, Law and Political Science. Research projects under her leadership received funding from Vetenskapsrådet, Crafoordska Stiftelsen, Jan Wallander och Tom Hedelius Stiftelsen, the Marianne and Markus Wallenberg Foundation and Riksbanken Jubileumsfonds.
