{"product_id":"japan-and-asia-shinichi-ichimura-9789814632096","title":"Japan and Asia: Economic Development and Nation Building","description":"The book is a precious reference book for development economics or the political economy of development in Asia or anywhere else. Unlike other books, first, it deals with all the East Asian countries, including Japan and other Asian countries. Second, it offers some empirical research findings based on surveys conducted by the author's group. Research on developing countries has been limited by individual scholars' observations, particularly about the value-related issues like politics or religions. Thirdly, the book digs into the nation-building problems which are often neglected by economists. It bridges the politics, sociology and economics in East Asian countries and is an important reference book for graduate students.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shinichi Ichimura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9814632090\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789814632096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d","brand":"Shinichi Ichimura","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47520677527807,"sku":"9789814632096","price":168.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bbab0d96-bca9-49f4-af15-32485770d62b.jpg?v=1762886477","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/japan-and-asia-shinichi-ichimura-9789814632096","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
