This book provides a much needed re-examination of the theoretical
claims and the empirical foundation of developmental state theory.
This theory emerged in response to the failure of both
neo-classical economics and dependency theory in accounting for the
spectacular economic growth of Japan and other latecomer nations.
The Developmental State in Asia Under the Microscope argues that
regardless of the merits of the developmental state as an
explanation of economic growth, it falls far short of being an
adequate theory of the state in Asia. In this book the contributors
critically review claims about agency, state-society and
state-market relations that shape developmental projects. It
broadens the analysis of state involvement in developmental
projects and considers the variety of political and social bases
for state projects across East and Southeast Asia in a
theoretically sensitive, thematic and empirically rich way.
