The economic success of East Asia

The economic success of East Asia is often attributed to the relationship between state and business. In The State and Industry in South Korea, Jong-Chan Rhee presents a more balanced view of Korea's industrial miracle. The book examines the limits of a strong authoritarian state as a vehicle for intervening in the market or for sponsoring liberal reform.

In so doing the author focuses on how state-controlled industrial adjustment in Korea has succeeded and failed.
