In order to better account for the evolution of state-led developmentalism, this book proposes changes by competition within, as well as outside, the state, in order to bring about changes in developmentalism and the ability to adjust to new contexts. Unlike prevalent accounts of developmental state theory, \u003cem\u003eChanges by Competition \u003c\/em\u003eargues that the state is neither unitary nor cohesive, but a locus of competition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hyeong-Ki Kwon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198866062\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198866060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/11\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.90d","brand":"Hyeong-Ki Kwon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44131583164671,"sku":"9780198866060","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cbf17f17-7518-42c0-a24d-906fb6a0e148.jpg?v=1687475261","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/changes-by-competition-hyeong-ki-kwon-9780198866060","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
