First Published in 2000 Routledge is an imprint of Taylor Francis an informa company This book investigates the relationships between education and national development in an area of the world where both have acquired considerable importance It questions assumptions which view education primarily as a direct investment in human capital and approaches which measure the efficacy of educational provision solely in terms of quantifiable differences between inputs and outputs Unlike most of the more general works in this field it does not set out either to confirm or to refute a particular theory Instead the main perspectives which have been adopted to explain the role of education in development are explored The role of education in the development of eight societies in East Asia including Japan Hong Kong Singapore Taiwan South Korea Malaysia Macau and the People s Republic of China is examined These societies are compared in order to highlight the diverse and complex role played by education in their development
