Yeon-Ho Lee

The State, Society and Big Business in South Korea (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines how the South Korean state is able to execute national policies that are opposed to the interests of social constituents, despite the expansion of social power. The relationship between the government and big business provides an illuminating example of this. The author demonstrates how Confucian values, the role of the family and a firm hierarchical tradition have prevented South Korea from developing a modern state on the Western model.
