Abstract

Until the onset of the Asian crisis, East Asia’s economic successes were considered with much admiration and spoke favourably of the experience of globalization in the developing regions. The Asian ‘model’ inspired and informed key debates on development policy and was a common point of reference for liberalization and outward-oriented economic policies, which the development orthodoxy has strongly advocated since the early 1980s.
