In the 1980s and 1990s many in the West came to believe in the myth of an East-Asian economic miracle. Japan was going to dominate, then China. Countries were called “tigers” or “mini-dragons,” and were seen as not just development prodigies, but as a unified bloc, culturally and economically similar, and inexorably on the rise.
Joe Studwell has spent two decades as a reporter in the region, and The Financial Times said he “should be named chief myth-buster for Asian business.” In How Asia Works, Studwell distills his extensive research into the economies of nine countries—Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, and China—into an accessible, readable narrative that debunks Western misconceptions, shows what really happened in Asia and why, and for once makes clear why some countries have boomed while others have languished.
Studwell’s in-depth analysis focuses on three main areas: land policy, manufacturing, and finance. Land reform has been essential to the success of Asian economies, giving a kick start to development by utilizing a large workforce and providing capital for growth. With manufacturing, industrial development alone is not sufficient, Studwell argues. Instead, countries need “export discipline,” a government that forces companies to compete on the global scale. And in finance, effective regulation is essential for fostering, and sustaining growth. To explore all of these subjects, Studwell journeys far and wide, drawing on fascinating examples from a Philippine sugar baron’s stifling of reform to the explosive growth at a Korean steel mill.
Thoroughly researched and impressive in scope, How Asia Works is essential reading for anyone interested in the development of these dynamic countries, a region that will shape the future of the world.
Joe Studwell is the founding editor of the China Economic Quarterly. A freelance journalist in Asia for over twenty years, he has also written for the Economist Intelligence Unit, The Economist, The Financial Times, The Asian Wall Street Journal and the The Far Eastern Economic Review. He is the author of The China Dream and Asian Godfathers.
分析比较东北亚和东南亚几个国家的经济发展模式,总的来说还是比较公正的书。专门有一章关于中国,比较中肯,至少不是唱衰。
评分一本儿说了人话的书。
评分The book offers a compelling analysis on the economic successes and pitfalls of selected east Asian and southeast Asian states, built upon 3 cornerstones - land reform, export-oriented manufacturing and a tightly controlled capital market in support of the first 2
评分本书得出的三大成功发展的诀窍虽简单明了,但对东北亚阵营(中、日、韩、台)及东南亚阵营(马、菲、泰、印尼)八个国家在发展型国家道路上各自的利弊得失做了生动翔实的描述和较为深入的比较分析,对这八个国家或其他后发国家的民众来讲还是值得看一下的。P.S. 繁体中文版将于明年一月出版,敬请期待!

故事讲的挺好的,理论构建的太差了。亨廷顿在《变化社会中的政治秩序》里构建的理论吊打这本书。 作者对政治的理解也太简单了吧。东南亚的经济落后仅仅是因为经济政策的错误吗?作者有没有考虑过一个问题:以东南亚国家的政府低下的执政能力,这些政府其实是没有能力选择他所说...
评分 评分经济学是一门玄学,公说公有礼,婆说婆有礼,有一个说法比较好,说经济学是一门对过去发生的事情进行回顾和总结的学问,不存在先验性,每一个地方实施同样的政策结果都不一样,哪怕是同一个地方在不同的时间,实施得到的结果也可能千差万别。 至今,都在争论是自由贸易好,还是...
评分不错! 作者认为亚洲经济发展历程一般都在三个方面取得成功:土地制度的改革、以出口为导向的工业生产、还有就是金融服务业的发展。 经过长时间的发展历程,最后只有日本,韩国和台湾取得成功,成功迈入发达国家行业,(香港,新加坡属于离岸金融中心,不在此列)而发展初期,...
