Description

Explore the significant socio-economic shifts that have shaped social welfare in East Asia over the last twenty years. This comprehensive handbook examines how national and global pressures have driven substantial reforms and developments in social policy across the region. While development paths have remained uneven, this text provides a deep look at the region's evolving landscape. It moves beyond traditional comparative analyses that focused primarily on the established welfare state of Japan and the four Tiger Economies. Instead, this resource addresses the modern debate and the changing dynamics of social policy in a region where recent developments have transformed the way welfare is understood. This book serves as a vital resource for those studying the transition of East Asian societies and the impact of global trends on local social policy structures. It offers a clear perspective on the reforms that have occurred since the 1990s, making it a necessary addition to any collection focused on regional social welfare and economic transformation.
