Emerging-Economy State and International Policy Studies Takashi Shiraishi Tetsushi Sonobe Editors Emerging States and Economies Their Origins, Drivers, and Challenges Ahead Emerging-Economy State and International Policy Studies Series editors Tetsushi Sonobe, National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies, Tokyo, Japan Takashi Shiraishi, Prefectural University of Kumamoto, Kumamoto, Japan Akihiko Tanaka, National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies, Tokyo, Japan Keiichi Tsunekawa, National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies, Tokyo, Japan Akio Takahara, Graduate School of Public Policy, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo, Japan This is the first series to highlight research into the processes and impacts of the state building and economic development of developing countries in the non-Western World that have recently come to influence global economy and governance. It offers a broad and interactive forum for discussions about the challengesofthesecountries andtheresponses ofother countriestotheirrise.The term‘emerging-economystate,’apartoftheseriestitle,oritsshorthand‘emerging states,’ is intended to promote dialogues between economists who have discussed policy problems faced by ‘emerging-market economies’ and scholars in political science and international relations who have discussed ‘modern state formation.’ Many emerging states are still in the middle-income status and not immune from the risk of falling into the middle-income trap. The manner of their external engagement is different from that of the high-income countries. Their rise has increased the uncertainty surrounding the world. To reduce the uncertainty, good understanding of their purpose of politics and state capacity as well as their economies and societies would be required. Although the emerging states are far from homogenous, viewing them as a type of countries would force us to understand better the similarity and differences among the emerging states and those between them and the high-income countries, which would in turn to help countries to ensure peace and prosperity. The series welcomes policy studies of empirical, historical, or theoretical nature from a micro, macro, or global point of view. It accepts, but does not call for, interdisciplinary studies. Instead, it aims to promote transdisciplinary dialogues among a variety of disciplines, including but notlimited toarea studies, economics, history, international relations,andpolitical science.Relevanttopicsincludeemergingstates’economicpolicies,socialpolicies, andpolitics,theirexternalengagement,ensuingpolicyreactionsofothercountries, ensuingsocialchangesindifferentpartsoftheworld,andcooperationbetweenthe emerging states andother countries to achievethe SustainableDevelopmentGoals (SDGs). The series welcomes both monographs and edited volumes that are accessible to academics and interested general readers.

Theregisteredcompanyaddressis:152BeachRoad,#21-01/04GatewayEast,Singapore189721, Singapore Preface Since the turn of the twenty-first century, we have seen the emergence of new economic powers on an unprecedented scale and the concomitant rise of some states in regional and/or global affairs. Most of the emerging-economy states are stillinthemiddle-incomestatus.Theyareneitherimmunefrommiddle-incometrap nor status quoists as advanced industrialized democracies. Their future is full of uncertainties, both political and economic. Yet their rise is as significant a devel- opmentastheriseofthe“West”inthenineteenthcenturyandwillhaveenormous bearings on world affairs. It is with this question in mind that we have assembled a group of economists, political scientists and historians and organized a joint research project. We have asked three sets of questions: what challenges the emerging states and economies face and how they are trying to meet them, what their long-term historical trajec- toriesare,bothpoliticalandeconomic,inmoderntimes,andwhatlessonswelearn from their rise for state building and economic development. More than 50 academics, affiliated with universities or government think-tanks, have joined the group: economists who have been working on developing and emerging economies, political scientists who have examined developmentalist regimesanddemocratizationinthenon-“Western”world,andhistorianswhohave studied state formation and economic history in global and regional comparative perspectives.Thefour-volumeStudiesofEmerging-EconomyStateseries,ofwhich thisbookisthefirsttoshowcase ourtakeonemerging statesandeconomies, isan important product of our common endeavors. The series will include Paths to the Emerging State in Asia and Africa, which offers historical and contemporary case studies of the transition to an emerging state, Developmental State Building: The Politics of Emerging Economies which is an attempt to revisit and revitalize the notion of developmental state with more nuanced analysis of the role of human agency in structural transformation, and Emerging States at Crossroads, which analyzes economic, social, and political challenges emerging states and economies confront. v vi Preface Inthecourse ofthe5-year jointresearch, wehave developedalivelyforumfor transdisciplinary dialogue, in which far more than our joint research project members participate. And we are pleased that the forum is now being boosted further by Springer Nature’s new book series Emerging-Economy States and International Policy Studies, which seeks to publish monographs and edited vol- umes on a variety of topics related to emerging states and economies and policy studies.
