Neoliberalism and Institutional Reform in East Asia (eBook, PDF)

A Comparative Study

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book brings together scholars of political economy, law and sociology to interrogate the seemingly unproblematic notions - the rules of law, good corporate governance, and flexible labour market - that inform neoliberal policy prescriptions. It also discusses how these concepts have been translated and practiced in East Asia.
