How has the economic development of Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and China been similar since the end of World War II, and how has it been different in the different countries?

What will be an ideal response?


In all four countries, the state has assumed a major role in guiding their respective economies. Likewise, these countries have all undergone similar transitions, from the export of inexpensive consumer goods, through the development of heavy industry, to the export of high-tech products. A major difference is that whereas all are capitalist-oriented, China retains a communist-inspired political system. Economic growth has been more unevenly distributed within China than it has been in the other countries.
