The idea of a democratic developmental state forms part of the
current development discourse advocated by international aid
agencies, deliberated on by academics, and embraced by policy
makers in many emerging economies in the global South. What is
noticeable in this discourse is how little attention has been paid
to a discussion of the essence of a democratic developmental state,
and much of what passes for theory is little more than policy speak
and political rhetoric. This volume fills a gap in the literature
on the democratic developmental state. Analyzing the different
approaches to the implementation of democratic developmental states
in various countries in the South, it evaluates the extent to which
these are merely replicating the central tenets of the East Asian
model of the developmental state or if they are succeeding in their
attempts to establish a new and more inclusive conceptualization of
the state. In particular, the authors scrutinize to what degree the
attempts to build a democratic developmental state may be distorted
by the imperatives of neoliberalism. The volume broadens the
understanding of the Nordic model of a democratic developmental
state and shows how it represents an additional, and perhaps
contending understanding of the developmental state derived from
the East Asian experience.
