“…Meanwhile, where spending proposals could build on a sense of political unity, bipartisan spending agreement proved possible. This was first the case for the physical infrastructure bill, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, but also the Chips and Science Act of 2022, both of which were major industrial policy initiatives (Donnelly, 2023).…”

This article examines four mechanisms for establishing federal spending programmes despite tough opposition based on identity or ideological politics, as well as disputes between haves and have-nots. It contrasts the use of clocks (time limits), caps, compartments (special justification for spending that would otherwise have been rejected), and carve-outs (exemptions to federal spending programmes to buy off objecting veto players) to secure political support for national-level programmes, and asks under what conditions those limits might be breached. We look at the EU, Canada, and the US. These tactics are most successful at “getting to yes” for federal authorities when they can isolate individual objections. As long as those objections persist, the limits will persist as well.

“…It is not the intent to use these analytical categories as mutually exclusive, but potentially complementary. Subsidies, production, and rules surrounding trade, or the source of company and fixed capital investments relate to one another by stimulating and shaping production in the private sector as much as in public goods provision (Donnelly, 2023a;McNamara, 2023).…”

“…The proposal was made on July 1, 2021, and approved on August 9, 2022. It was considered both a reaction to the supply chain vulnerabilities of the corona years, as well as a response to a decline in the US share of global semiconductor production, and a strategic national security imperative to ensure technical supremacy vis-à-vis China (Donnelly, 2023a;Wang & Sotomayor, 2022).…”

Semiconductor and ICT Industrial Policy in the US and EU: Geopolitical Threat Responses

<p>This article analyses chips and critical ICT infrastructure policy in the US and the EU. It examines the increasing importance of Waltian geopolitical security threats on both sides of the Atlantic as a driver of industrial policy, export controls, self-sufficiency, and friendshoring as a replacement for dependence on global supply chains. It shows that threat perceptions are strong and bipartisan in the US, allowing comprehensive, strategic and well-funded industrial policy. Threat perceptions driving chip and 5G industrial policy are also present in the EU’s Economic Security Strategy and related policies. However, differing national preferences dilute a Waltian turn with continued attachment to liberal (global supply chain) approaches to chips and 5G infrastructure and a Waltzian realist stance (capacity-building to build, protect, and promote regardless of security threat) that occupies the middle ground.</p>
