About the book
What is the reason for China's rapid economic growth? Why can we not unconditionally trust the opinion of neo-institutionalists? Where is the "golden mean" in managing the state's economy? These and other questions are answered by Financial Times reporter Joe Studwell. He analyses the three main components of a successful economy: agricultural policy, industrial production, and the distribution of finance. The author focuses on Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam and China. By analysing the business of these countries, the author shows what has worked in Asia and what has not.
Who is the book for

WHY THIS BOOK IS WORTH READING
The author shows why China, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea have been able to achieve dynamic development while others have not. Stadwell provides a seemingly simple recipe for success and the reasons why it worked.
