Abstract

The following two chapters examine the growth of two of Korea’s major industries; textiles (including garments) and electronics. The former dominated the earlier period of Korea’s growth (1965–75), the latter played an influential role in the late 1970s and 1980s. Although the Korean economy rapidly diversified into a wide range of industrial activities in the 1970s, it is worth remembering that the initial ‘take off’ was largely determined by the success of the textile and garment industry, and the transition to a more sustainable industrial development was strongly influenced by the growth of the electronics industry.
