Description

Explore the complex reality behind the popular stereotypes of East Asian governance. While many Western observers view East Asian welfare systems as low-cost models for neoliberalism or social-democratic cohesion, this book challenges those simplistic views. It provides a deep look into how state intervention actually functions across the region. This academic work features insights from six specialists covering six distinct societies: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, China, Singapore, and Hong Kong. By examining the specific role of the state in each welfare system, the text moves past welfare orientalism to provide a grounded analysis of social policy and government intervention. This is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in the political and social structures of the Pacific Asia Programme.
