内容説明

The rise of South Korea as a major economic power in the Far East, challenging even Japan for world markets, has been widely noted. This is a book about how late industrialization, taking place in the 20th century, especially since the Second World War, has brought about the growth of the South Korean economy. It also compares the late industrialization experiences of other countries such as Taiwan, Brazil, Turkey, India, and Mexico, and draws conclusions regarding why some countries have been successful and others have not. The author argues that Korea has been successful because the government not only subsidized and protected certain industries, but it also demanded strict performance standards from those it helped. The author also examines the role of labour and education in creating good conditions for economic growth.

内容説明

While much attention has been focused on Japan's meteoric rise as an economic power, South Korea has been quietly emerging as the next industrial giant to penetrate the world market. South Korea is one of a series of countries (ranging from Taiwan, India, Brazil, and Turkey, to Mexico, and including Japan) to have succeeded through borrowing foreign technology rather than by generating new products or processes. Describing such countries as `late-industrializers,' Amsden demonstrates why South Korea has become the most successful of this group.
