Made in Korea
American business folklore is awash with the adventures of successful entrepreneurs. Still, most of these stories are about Americans, neglecting important and courageous entrepreneurs from other countries. Made in Korea recounts the story of how Chung Ju Yung rose from poverty to build one of the world's largest and most successful building empires - Hyundai - through a combination of creative thinking, tenacity, timing, political skills, and a business strategy that few competitors ever understood. Chung entered the shipbuilding business with no experience and went on to create the world's largest shipyard. He began making automobiles when foreign experts unanimously predicted he would fai...
Policy Analysis in South Korea
The industrialisation and modernisation in South Korea that followed the Second World War resulted in rapid progress in economic development, public administration, social service provision and the establishment of modern public policy. Bringing together outstanding researchers, this book is the first to examine the theory and practice of policy analysis in South Korea. The volume explores the historical development of policy analysis, and procedures for decision making at different levels of government. Drawing on case studies, contributors consider the issues and players that affect executive and legislative branch policy analysis, as well as policy design and analysis in the public arena and the shifting role of policy and research institutes, think tanks and post-secondary institutions.

The Korean Developmental State
This book analyzes, from a historical comparative perspective, the Korean economic development model, the extent to which it has changed from its classical model, and what constitutes its changes and continuity. Unlike studies claims the dissolution of Korean developmentalism, the book holds that the Korean state maintains its characteristics of state-led capitalism despite significant changes in policies and instruments rather than converge toward an AngloSaxon-style free market system. It emphasizes that the continuity of state-led capitalism is compatible with institutional change. Some institutionalists insist that the continuity of Korean developmentalism is based on path dependency. In contrast, this book argues that Korean capitalism could sustain its state developmentalism by changes in policies and instruments to improve national industrial competitiveness in the changed context of international competition. This book will be of interest to East Asian scholars, comparative economists, and those curious about the future of the Korean peninsula.

Familie im Wandel
Familienpolitik hat in Deutschland und Korea seit einigen Jahren enorm an Bedeutung gewonnen. Vor allem die sinkenden Geburtenraten und die sich aus dem demographischen Wandel ergebenden problematischen Konsequenzen für den Arbeitsmarkt und die Sozialversicherungssysteme führen dazu, dass in beiden Ländern aus einem ehemals eher randständigen Politikbereich mittlerweile ein zentraler Gegenstand politischen Handelns wurde. Gleichzeitig ist zu beobachten, dass sich das Bild der Familie in Deutschland und Korea in einem Wandel befindet. Der vorliegende Band beleuchtet deutsche und koreanische Familien aus politischer, gesellschaftlicher und ökonomischer Perspektive.
