MEDIA REVIEWS

"However, this book has put on the agenda an important question about the recent fate of the developmental state and provided some thorough case studies, and perhaps it will inspire other scholars to take up this question." (American Journal of Sociology, 1 September 2013)

"It will surely find its way onto the reading lists of Master's level courses both in social science and East Asian studies departments, as well as forming invaluable reading for researchers and commentators more broadly." (International Journal of Housing Policy, 20 June 2013)
