Summary |
"Mobilizing for Development examines how East Asia achieved rural development. Analysts generally agree that modern East Asian states have exceptionally strong institutions and that industrialization was largely a state-led process, but the developmental state literature generally ignores the role of the state in rural development, fails to account for variation among East Asian countries, and excludes China from comparative analysis. This work examines Taiwan (1950s-1970s), South Korea (1950s-1970s), and China (1980s-2000s) to show different outcomes on agricultural production, rural living standards, and village infrastructure"-- Provided by publisher. |
