Japanese Capital Formation: The Role of the Public Sector*

Henry Rosovsky

The Journal of Economic History, 1959, vol. 19, issue 3, 350-375

Abstract: Assessing the role of government in economic development in situations where public and private sectors coexist is extremely difficult. The nature of modern government is so complex and its activities are so broad, that a clear statement of “influence” or “impact” on a national economy becomes almost impossible. Interpretations of Japanese economic history illustrate these problems vividly. Few scholars have dealt with the issue explicitly, and those that have seem unable to reach clear conclusions.
