Publisher Marketing: In this volume East Asia is used as a unit of political and economic analysis to reveal an approach to modernisation that is distinct from the Western model. The volume especially focuses on the interaction between nations of East Asia; the advantages and limits of export-led growth; relations between such processes as state formation, industrial growth, urbanisation, and the movement from status- to class-based social hierarchies; and the links between state, market, and civic culture.
