Abstract

Provides a summary of Korea's economic performance during the past 40 years. Korea's economic strategy is discussed with regard to context--both the domestic (historic) and the international factors that have informed Korea's development. Simultaneously, Korea also functions as a case study for the divergence of Asian countries from the practice of Western neoclassical economics.

Keywords
