      abstract = {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. Kyung Mi Kim earned a Ph.D. at  Seoul National University, South Korea, in 2017, and now  works as a research professor in the Philosophy, Politics,  and Economics Program at the same institution. She  co-authored a journal article titled, "The States Role in  Globalization: Koreas Experience from a Comparative  Perspective" published in Politics & Society in 2017.},
