Japanese Economic System and Its Historical Origins

This book contains many carefully researched accounts of the evolution of the Japanese economy. Klappentext This volume looks closely at the origins of the current Japanese economic system, focusing particularly on the contrast between the war period of 1930-1945 and the preceding situation. Zusammenfassung Japan's rise from defeat in World War II to its position as one of the world's foremost economies is the focus of this volume. It examines the origins of the Japanese economic system, and argues that the special features of the Japanese system were all deliberately created during militarization.
