Title: Beyond the developmental state
Description: East Asia has featured some of the world's most dynamic economies and, as a result, has attracted much scholarly and official attention to explain this performance. One important analytic tradition argues that strong, autonomous states have played a vital role in the economic ascendance of this region.

This collection of essays seeks to contribute to the theory of 'developmental state' by illuminating the social context, the cultural foundation and the global and regional environment that have fostered and shaped the role and influence of government.
