Description

This book analyzes how Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and China achieved rapid economic development through public policies and technological innovation in East Asia. The work examines the fundamental role of the state and industrial strategies in the process of technological catching-up in these economies. Throughout its chapters, the author explores the historical foundations and economic policies of each country under global geopolitical pressures. The book begins with two chapters addressing the economic rise of East Asia and the main heterodox developmental literatures, followed by four chapters discussing these specific experiences (Japanese, Taiwanese, South Korean, and Chinese), and finally, a comparative conclusion. Finally, the analysis focuses on the role of state-owned enterprises, government planning, and technical bureaucracies in sustaining growth. Written in clear and accessible language, this book is essential for researchers, students, and anyone interested in understanding the role of the state and the lessons of Asian development for the contemporary global landscape.
