Features: In recent years, East Asian countries, and even the whole world, have been summarizing and reflecting on the lessons of East Asia. A large number of encouraging research results have been published, including many insightful observations that strike at the root of persistent problems. However, most of the analysis has still focused more on the economic level. As the understanding of the issue deepens, more and more people are beginning to realize that to truly identify the root causes of the East Asian economic crisis, it is necessary to further analyze the politics, and even the socio-cultural aspects, of East Asian countries. With the outbreak of the financial crisis, the domestic politics of East Asian countries also underwent a series of changes. This is the main content of this book.
