Much has been written about the challenges Asian governments face
in response to rapid socio-economic changes and the resulting
social needs and welfare expectations. Indeed, heated debates have
emerged when scholars in social development, social welfare and
social policy conducted more systematic comparative research
related to the diverse policy measures adopted by Asian
governments: which welfare models or typologies best describe Asian
cases after the 2008 global financial crisis?; how can contemporary
social policy transformations in Asia be appropriately
conceptualized?; are particular 'best practice' examples evolving
in Asia and if so, can they be successfully transferred to enhance
social welfare governance among Asian economies? This book combines
contributions that address Asian government responses in the light
of the above questions. In doing so, it revisits the broad
theoretical literature on "policy transfer" and provides empirical
examples to explore the spread of ideas, social policies and
programmes across Asia from varying analytical and methodological
perspectives. The chapters originally published as a special issue
in the Journal of Asian Public Policy.
