Features: This book views the economic system as a collection of various institutions and is considered the authoritative work on the diversity of market economy systems within the new field of "Comparative Institutional Analysis (CIA)." Focusing on the modern Japanese economic system as the primary object of comparative institutional analysis, the book theoretically discusses the internal structure of this system and the incentive effects and interdependencies of the various elements that constitute this structure. Since 1999, the book has been translated into Chinese by researchers from the Development Research Center of the State Council with the author's authorization. Upon publication, it garnered attention from the domestic economics community, particularly among economics students and faculty who used it as a supplementary reference book. To meet the demands of a broader readership, China Development Press will release the second edition of this book, hoping to provide greater value to more readers.
