Download or read book Korea s Paradigm Shift for Sustainable and Inclusive Growth A Proposal written by Yangkyoon Byeon and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Korea is facing mounting economic challenges. Productivity growth has been on a trend decline amid demographic headwinds, while the societal demand for inclusive growth has been on a steep rise. Furthermore, the government-led unbalanced growth model—which served Korea well in the past—has become less effective and politically palatable in recent years. As such, Korea needs a major paradigm shift to embark on a new sustainable and inclusive growth path. But policy response has been modest at best with no major reforms being implemented over the past two decades. We propose a paradigm shift in Korea’s economic framework, involving a simultaneous big push for greater economic freedom and stronger social protection within the parameters set by long-run fiscal sustainability. We also provide a detailed account of structural reforms to boost economic freedom and sustainable funding plans for stronger social protection.

This book was released on 2019-04-24 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential role of social protection in the development process has received heightened recognition in recent years, yet making a strong investment case for social protection remains particularly challenging in many emerging and developing countries. This report challenges us to think deeply about the economic rationale for social protection investments through an inclusive development lens. It helps us understand the links between social protection, growth and inequality; how to measure those links empirically; social protection’s impact on inclusive growth; and how to build a more solid economic case for greater social protection investments.

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.

Download or read book Social and Economic Policies in Korea written by Dong-Myeon Shin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-12-08 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sustained remarkable economic growth in the East Asian countries - Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore - has brought about a great deal of debate over the role of the state in the market and society. Shin analyses the dynamic process of state interventions in the economy and social affairs in Korea from the early 1960s until the present with special reference to five policy areas: macro-economic policy, industrial policy, social security policy, labour policy, and education and training policy. Social and Economic Policies in Korea develops a unique explanation about the development of Korean social policy using the concepts of 'policy idea', 'policy network', and 'policy-linkages' to examine the causes, patterns and consequences of state interventions in the economy and social affairs over time. It should interest students and researchers of East Asian studies, social policy and development studies.

Book excerpt: This book provides an insightful analysis of Korea's remarkable economic growth and the role of international trade in this process.

The authors analyze the changes in Korea's industrial structure and how they have shifted the economy from an agricultural-based to a manufacturing and high-tech industry. The book also provides a critical review of different theories and perspectives that explain Korea's rapid growth, including the role of R&D, technology spillover, and productivity. Additionally, the book explores the implications for developing countries seeking economic development and the need for technological innovation to sustain long-term growth. This book is a must-read for researchers, policymakers, and students interested in the Korean economy and the nexus between international trade and economic growth.
