Description

This comprehensive analysis by Gavin Peebles and Peter Wilson traces Singapore's remarkable economic transformation from its origins to contemporary prospects. The book examines the institutional frameworks and policy decisions that enabled rapid growth whilst critically evaluating the economy's current trajectory and potential structural changes. Readers gain insight into competing perspectives on government intervention and the public sector's role in driving economic success. The authors assess whether this growth is sustainable and explore how high savings rates and substantial investment have reshaped Singapore's economic structure. Essential reading for students, economists, and policymakers seeking to understand how a small city-state became a global economic powerhouse and what challenges lie ahead.

Key Features

Singapore's economic history is presented through institutional and policy analysis by authors Peebles and Wilson, offering scholarly depth for academic and professional readers.

The book examines conflicting viewpoints on government involvement and the public sector's economic role, providing balanced perspective on state-led development strategies.

Structural economic changes resulting from high savings and investment rates are detailed, illustrating Singapore's transition and diversification patterns.

Future growth prospects and sustainability of current economic models are critically analysed, offering forward-looking insights for policy consideration.

Published by Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd, this work combines historical narrative with economic theory for comprehensive understanding of development economics.
