The development of foreign trade in East Asia, the\nrelations between industrialization and consumption in Korea, the transactions in\nfertilizers and the development of small-scale industries in Taiwan are precisely\nexamined. At\npresent, East Asia is a major economic center of the world. It is necessary to look\nclosely not only at both sides of the “exploitation or development under\ncolonization” paradigm but also at the prewar factors that spurred East Asian economic\ngrowth in the postwar decades. A noteworthy characteristic of the Japanese colonial empire\nwas the close economic and geographic relations among Japan, Taiwan, Korea, and the northeastern region of China. Economic integration within the empire strengthened\nconsiderably in the interwar years and remained high even during the war as\ncompared to that in European countries and their colonies. What was the\nirreversible change in each colonial economy by means of forced incorporation\ninto the Japanese empire? What was the impact on economic subjects such as\nmerchants, manufacturers, managers, and workers through the colonial regime? This\nbook provides readers with broad perspectives that are indispensable given that\nthe factors discussed herein are the historical origins of current issues.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-05-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9784431567295\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-4-431-55927-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 154\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Japan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47411413811340,"sku":"9784431567295","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9784431567295.jpg?v=1775842440","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9784431567295","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
