Overview"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 latter 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." Full Product DetailsAuthor: I. Holliday , P.
