East Asian countries have adopted remarkably good policies to
ensure sustained economic growth, but how did they come to adopt
such policies in the first place? This book produces a more
thorough explanation than has previously been advanced drawing on
several disciplines including contributions from anthropologists,
economists, political scientists, technologists, demographers,
historians and psychologists. Several contributors have held high
positions in Asian governments. Four broad themes are identified:
* effective governance
* achieving and learning societies
* growth with equity
* external influences
This is the most comprehensive account of the foundations of East
Asia's rise. Its distinctiveness lies in the range of comparisons
across the countries of East and South-East Asia and in the wide
array of contributing disciplines.
