Policy capacity and societal learning are increasingly stressed as pre-conditions for successful catch-up. However, how such learning should be initiated by individual societies with different features needs to be explained. The book answers this pragmatic question from the perspective of Japan?s past experience and its extensive development cooperation in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Since the late nineteenth century, Japan has developed a unique philosophy and method for adopting advanced technologies and systems from the West; the same philosophy and method govern its current cooperation with the developing world. The key concepts are local learning and translative adaptation. Local learning says that development requires the learner to adopt a proactive mindset and the goal of graduating from receiving aid. Meanwhile, translative adaptation requires foreign models be modified to fit local realities given the different structures of the home and foreign society. The development process must be wholly owned by the domestic society in rejection of copy-and-paste acceptance. These ideas not only informed Japan but are key to successful development for all. The book also asks how this learning method should?or should not?be revised in the age of SDGs and digitalization. Following the overview section that lays out the general principles, the book offers many real cases from Japan and other countries. The concrete actions outlined in these cases, with close attention to individual growth ?ingredients? as opposed to general theories, are crucial to successful policy making. The book contains materials that are highly useful for national leaders and practitioners within developing countries as well as students of development studies. . 410 0$aEmerging-Economy State and International Policy Studies,$x2524-5031 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aJapan$xHistory 606 $aDevelopment Economics 606 $aDevelopment Studies 606 $aEconomic Growth 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aHistory of Japan 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aJapan$xHistory. 615 14$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 615 24$aEconomic Growth. 615 24$aGlobalization. 615 24$aHistory of Japan. 676 $a338.9 700 $aOhno$b Izumi$01143583 701 $aJin$b Kimiaki$01433886 701 $aAmatsu$b Kuniaki$01433887 701 $aMori$b Junichi$01433888 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910746982403321 996 $aIntroducing Foreign Models for Development$93584676 997 $aUNINA
