Paperback. The contributors to this volume consider the South Korean economy in its larger political context. Moving beyond the easy dichotomies-equilibrium vs. disequilibrium and stability vs. instability-they describe a complex and surprisingly robust economic and political system.

Weight in Grams: 499.
