Description

Explore Japan's remarkable transformation into a modern economic power through this comprehensive collection of selected essays by renowned economist Shigeto Tsuru. This volume examines how Japan achieved extraordinary economic development without tariff autonomy or significant foreign capital investment during the nineteenth century - a socio-political and economic achievement unparalleled in history. Tsuru's papers provide unique insight into the institutional development of capitalism in Japan, with several essays published here for the first time. Part of the Economists of the Twentieth Century series published by Edward Elgar Publishing, this book offers critical analysis and scholarly perspectives on the mechanisms and policies that drove Japan's emergence as a modern industrial state, making it an essential resource for economists, historians, and anyone studying economic development and institutional history.

Key Features

Shigeto Tsuru's selected essays span Japan's economic transformation from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, offering primary scholarly analysis of this unique historical period.

Several papers in this volume are published for the first time, providing previously unavailable perspectives on Japan's institutional capitalism and economic development.

Edward Elgar Publishing's Economists of the Twentieth Century series positions this work within academic canon as authoritative economic history and biographical scholarship.

The collection examines how Japan achieved rapid economic modernisation without tariff autonomy or substantial foreign capital injection, a distinctive development model.
