About this course
Political regimes in East Asia range from democratic and authoritarian to hybridist, while most are also known for their ?economic miracles.? That is, lifting their countries out of poverty and becoming successful late developers. Why? This course will examine the contemporary developments that have shaped the political systems and behaviors as well as the developmental policies of the major states in the region: China, Japan, the ?four tigers? (South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong); and to a lesser extent, North Korea.
