Informationen zum Autor YEUN-WEN KU Professor of Social Policy, National Chi Nan University, Taiwan JAMES LEE Associate Professor, City University of Hong Kong KA-HO MOK Associate Dean, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, City University of Hong Kong   Klappentext          Zusammenfassung Social Policy has been a key dimension of dynamic economic growth in East Asia's 'little tigers' and is also a prominent strand of their responses to the financial crisis of the late 1990s. This systematic comparative analysis of social policy in the region focuses on the key sectors of education, health, housing and social security. It sets these sectoral analyses in wider contexts of debates about developmental states, the East Asian welfare model and globalization.    Inhaltsverzeichnis Welfare Capitalism in the Tiger Economies of East and Southeast Asia; I.Holliday & P.Wilding Tiger Social Policy in Context; I.Holliday & P.Wilding Education Policy; K.Mok HealthCare; I.Holliday Housing; J.Lee Social Security Policy; Y-W.Ku Conclusion; I.Holliday and P.Wilding
