Taiwan: Building a POLIS

Haider Khan ()

Chapter 6 in Interpreting East Asian Growth and Innovation, 2004, pp 78-92 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter another East Asian ‘miracle’ country — Taiwan — is studied. While Taiwan’s pattern of development may look similar to that of Korea there are significant differences as well. The history of the development of Taiwan shows a greater reliance on direct foreign investment, more direct government ownership of enterprises and a greater role of small and medium enterprises in the manufacturing sector. Table 6.1a and 6.1b show selected indicators related to growth for the Taiwan economy for various years.
