This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 800 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrialization supported by industrial hubs has been widely associated with structural transformation and catch-up. But while the direct economic benefits of industrial hubs are significant, their value lies first and foremost in their contribution as incubators of industrialization, production and technological capability, and innovation. The Oxford Handbook of Industrial Hubs and Economic Development adopts an interdisciplinary approach to examine the conceptual underpinnings, review empirical evidence of regions and economies, and extract pertinent lessons for policy reasearchers and practitioners on the key drivers of success and failure for industrial hubs. This Handbook illustrates the diverse and complex nature of industrial hubs and shows how they promote industrialization, economic structural transformation, and technological catch-up. It explores the implications of emerging issues and trends such as environmental protection and sustainability, technological advancement, shifts in the global economy, and urbanization.
Book Synopsis Korean Industrial Policy by : Danny M. Leipziger
Download or read book Korean Industrial Policy written by Danny M. Leipziger and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1993 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Bank is changing the way it does business in the energy sector. This Policy Paper is one of two that outlines the Bank's new policies for the sector. The review was prompted by concern about the effects of power generation on the environment and on populations that may be resettled to make way for projects. Another stimulus was the macroeceonomic reality of fewer investment resources in many countries. And many developing countries are becoming more receptive to reforming the way energy is produced and consumed. This paper credits the public monopoly approach of the last 30 years with facilitating expansion of power supplies, capturing technical economies of scale, and making effective use of scarce managerial and technical skills. Nonetheless, it recommends several new policies to improve the performance of the electric power sector in developing countries. These reforms will guide future Bank activities in the sector. Bank loans for electric power will go first to countries clearly committed to improving the performance of their power sectors. The Bank will also discourage subsidies on energy prices and will encourage private investment in utilities. And it will provide financing to help the least developed countries import power where local generation is not practical. The efficiency of production and use of electric power in developing countries is examined in a companion paper, Energy Efficiency and Conservation in the Developing World: The World Banks Role . The World Bank's Role in the Electric Power Sector is also available in Spanish: La funcion del Banco Mundial en el sector de la electricidad. Politicas para efectuar una reforma institucional, regulatoria, y financieria eficaz. (ISBN 0-8213-2451-9) / Stock No. 12451 / $7.95 / Price code 007 / Spanis

Book Synopsis Does What You Export Matter? by : Daniel Lederman
Download or read book Does What You Export Matter? written by Daniel Lederman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2012-06-18 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does what economies export matter for development? If so, can industrial policies improve on the export basket generated by the market? This book approaches these questions from a variety of conceptual and policy viewpoints. Reviewing the theoretical arguments in favor of industrial policies, the authors first ask whether existing indicators allow policy makers to identify growth-promoting sectors with confidence. To this end, they assess, and ultimately cast doubt upon, the reliability of many popular indicators advocated by proponents of industrial policy. Second, and central to their critique, the authors document extraordinary differences in the performance of countries exporting seemingly identical products, be they natural resources or 'high-tech' goods. Further, they argue that globalization has so fragmented the production process that even talking about exported goods as opposed to tasks may be misleading. Reviewing evidence from history and from around the world, the authors conclude that policy makers should focus less on what is produced, and more on how it is produced. They analyze alternative approaches to picking winners but conclude by favoring 'horizontal-ish' policies--for instance, those that build human capital or foment innovation in existing and future products—that only incidentally favor some sectors over others.

Book Synopsis South Korea’s Industrial Development Since the Early 1960s by : Sang-Woo Nam
Download or read book South Korea’s Industrial Development Since the Early 1960s written by Sang-Woo Nam and published by Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. This book was released on 2020-02-12 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper examines the remarkable growth of the South Korean economy from the early 1960s to the early 2000s. This paper provides an overview of South Korea’s industrial development process, with a particular emphasis on the heavy and chemical industries’ drive in the 1970s and the impact of educational expansion and investment on technological capabilities. The paper shows how this economic growth was primarily due to an export- oriented industrialization strategy and consistent upgrades to industrial infrastructure and systems to remain competitive in the global market. One of the most important policies pursued by the government was the development of the country's human potential. The paper argues that without this investment, it would have been impossible for South Korea to emerge as one of the most innovative economies in the world. These achievements are attributable to the vision of the political leadership, a supportive government, the hard work of entrepreneurs and others who contributed their valuable human resources. It also examines the 1997 foreign exchange crisis, its causes, and impact on South Korea, as well as the lessons learned, and new policies enacted in its aftermath. The rapid build-up of industrial capabilities was the result of a substantial reduction in investment risks with comprehensive government support for financing, infrastructure, technology and manpower development. However, this also made South Korea's large multi-national industrial companies (chaebols) reckless in fiscal policies. Furthermore, a concentration of economic power and chaebol's putting family interests first — remains a cause of serious socio-political tension in South Korea. The paper concludes that South Korea’s industrial development since the early 1960s include: strong political leadership with vision and a strong commitment to economic development; industrial policy with a focus on promoting heavy and chemical industries; state-chaebol development partnership; and huge investment in human capital and technological capabilities.
Book Synopsis The Economic Development of South Korea by : Seung-hun Chun
Download or read book The Economic Development of South Korea written by Seung-hun Chun and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did a country with a dearth of natural resources, a sprawling population congested in a limited arable land transform itself to a modern industrial state within a generation? How could these have been achieved given the lingering geopolitical threats to its very survival as a state, as evidenced by the Korean War and the internecine aggressive posturing of its neighbor from the north? This book looks at strategies, institutional arrangement, role of entrepreneurs and workers in this odyssey, and on how those factors have worked together through effective leadership to transform South Korea’s economic fortunes.
Book Synopsis Industrial Development in Singapore, Taiwan, and South Korea by : Kai-Sun Kwong
Download or read book Industrial Development in Singapore, Taiwan, and South Korea written by Kai-Sun Kwong and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic analysis of the industrial experiences of the newly industrialized economies in Asia is generally lacking in the literature. This study attempts to fill that void by providing an in-depth discussion on the economic impact of the industrial policies of Singapore, Taiwan, and South Korea in the three-and-a-half decades after 1960. Throughout the study, a broad perspective of macroeconomic development is maintained. It is highly critical of the narrow-minded objective of certain governments in maximizing the pace of industrialization at the expense of general economic well-being. A comparative analysis of the industrial experiences of the three economies also shows a diversity of constraints and processes. Singapore relied on multinational corporations, Taiwan on returned engineers, and South Korea on chaebols. There appears to be no Asian formula for industrialization. In Hong Kong, there is an ongoing debate on whether some form of industrial policy should be introduced, in view of the perception that Hong Kong is lagging behind the other economies in terms of technology. Drawing on the experiences of the other economies, the concluding chapter of the book provides an informed and balanced answer to this question. Contents: Singapore: Dominance of Multinational Corporations; Taiwan: Thriving High-Technology Industries and SME; South Korea: Government-Led Development and the Dominance of Giant Corporations; Comparison Among Singapore, Taiwan, and South Korea; Strategic Considerations in the Hong Kong Context. Readership: Researchers, policy-makers and undergraduates in economics and East Asian Studies.

Book Synopsis The Political Economy of Industrial Policy in East Asia by : Sung Gul Hong
Download or read book The Political Economy of Industrial Policy in East Asia written by Sung Gul Hong and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Political Economy of Industrial Policy in East Asia sheds new light on the reasons why Taiwan and South Korea have achieved such remarkable progress in the semiconductor industry. This book focuses on the institutional arrangements in Taiwan and South Korea across time and shows how the state and society have interacted to accomplish the successful development of the semiconductor industry. It argues persuasively that three institutional factors are critical in understanding the development processes of the semiconductor industry in these two countries: first, the different degrees of business concentration, second, the different state structures and their influence on policy making networks, and finally, the different international political economies in which the two countries are located. The author challenges the developmental statist argument which has traditionally offered the most popular explanation of East Asian development, and includes recent industrial data and statistics demonstrating the current status of this rapidly changing industry. This book will be welcomed by graduate students and academics in the fields of comparative political economy, international political economy and industrial policy. It will also appeal to those interested in industrial development strategies, East Asian development and comparative politics.
