| Summary: |
"What shapes characteristics and types of state governance in a specific country? How do they change over time? More importantly, what will they look like in the near and far future? This book addresses these fundamental yet timely questions by introducing and analysing a distinctive group of Japanese statesmen: Seikai-Tensin which means one's transformation into politicians in Japanese. The book looks at the Japanese developmental state through a time-series analysis on historical data to determine the dynamic pattern of a prototype developmental state. It offers comparative implications for other developmental states including South Korea and Singapore to have a better understanding of themselves and their counterparts and useful lessons for governance practitioners to pursue a better balance between politics and administration. This book will interest those researching on governance, comparative politics, government bureaucracy and public policy"-- |
