The authors posit that it was the Kuomintang Government's endorsement of property rights reform and institutional change that enabled Taiwan to transform from an impoverished command economy to one of the fastest growing economies in the world. The book gives special attention to how a small group of political and economic leaders began adopting the new ideas and beliefs that created the vision that enabled them to embrace institutional and organizational innovations, actions which led to the formation of the new market economy. Using first-hand interview material with key government officials from the period, and analyses of hitherto unused Chinese-language archives including: the diaries of Chiang Kai-shek, Kuomintang party archives, and personal papers of Kuomintang leaders, as well as newspaper and journal articles published in Taiwan between 1949 and 1965, this book is both empirically rich, and gives the reader insights into Taiwan's developmental experience and the direction in which, under different circumstances, China's post-war expansion might have proceeded. Taiwan's Economic Transition will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the economic and political history and development of Taiwan. More broadly it will also appeal to scholars and students of China's historical and contemporary development, Asian economics, and Asian studies"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aRoutledge research on Taiwan ;$v7. 606 $aCapitalism$zTaiwan 607 $aTaiwan$xEconomic policy$y1945-1975 607 $aTaiwan$xEconomic conditions$y1945-1975 615 0$aCapitalism 676 $a330.95124/905 686 $aBUS023000$aBUS069000$aBUS069020$2bisacsh 700 $aKuo$b Tai-Chun$f1952-,$0675429 701 $aMyers$b Ramon Hawley$f1929-$0119891 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789738403321 996 $aTaiwan's economic transformation$93702063 997 $aUNINA
