| Summary: | Such a role is much awaited.” – Binayak Sen, Director General of the Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies “Japan and South Korea have both become increasingly noteworthy players in the field of international development cooperation. Using a comparative perspective, this edited volume explores systematically this important yet under-studied topic.” – Daniel Béland, James McGill Professor, McGill University This book examines the evolution of foreign aid policy in Japan and South Korea, analyzing policy rationales, institutional developments and policy choices. The book searches for new strategies of international development cooperation in an uncertain world. The book compares two countries’ policies in a unique way: pairs of Japanese and Korean scholars examine same policy themes in separate chapters. This book will be of great value to scholars of international development cooperation, public policy and East Asian politics. “This book fills an important intellectual gap as most non-Asian researchers know very little about East Asia's OECD/DAC members. This thought-provoking book is essential reading for all who are examining the future of international cooperation in an increasingly uncertain world.” – David Hulme, Professor of Development Studies, University of Manchester “This is a welcome and timely contribution to the scholarship on the history, politics and outcomes of development co-operation in East Asia. Its substantive content and analytic frameworks will be of interest and value not only for Development Studies but also for Comparative Social Policy studies more generally.” – Rebecca Surender, Pro Vice-Chancellor, University of Oxford “Japan-Korea combined efforts would be a far reaching statement economically, intellectually and ethically. It can be a formidable force in support of this region’s core aspirations for development and long term stability.
