The process of economic and political globalization has a major impact on the integrity and sovereignty of national states. This pressure is felt most by developing countries and countries in transition. Also, social inequality is unavoidable for the countries members of BRICS, whose societies are already under the influence of negative activities of modern industrial development. Never before, has the economic activity produced so much material wealth in such a short period of time, and at the same time, it has degraded the natural environment to a large degree. Inequality in income between and within the states themselves is growing. It is reflected in the fact that less and less wealthy individuals have an increasing share of capital, while, on the other hand, there is a growing number of those who are below the poverty line. The working class is evenin a more difficult situation, taking into account ever worse working conditions and a reduction in salaries. All this led to the breakdown of the social component. However, in such social circumstances, the role of the state as a regulator of economic activities is crucial. The benefits of globalization have to be evenly distributed, and that is why institutions and policies are needed to prevent global imbalances of theworld development in the future. The more and more frequent demands for reducing the role of the state and its regulations have not been achieved. On the contrary, its activities have increased in many areas, with only a changed mode of operation. The emphasis is placed on economic growth and development, and less on the direct solution of social issues.

This paper is an examination of the role of the Hong Kong government vis-à-vis governments in Japan and other Asian newly industrialized economies (NIEs) in high-tech industrial development. It is argued that, whereas governments of Japan and other Asian NIEs have played very important roles in facilitating industrial restructuring, the Hong Kong government has so far refrained from direct participation in industrial development. Although the Hong Kong government has assumed an important position in the course of economic development in the territory, especially in terms of land-related economic activities, it has little vested interest and experience in directing industrial developments. It was not until the 1990s that the government switched from a ‘positive nonintervention’ to a ‘minimum intervention with maximum support’ industrial policy and began to play a more active role in facilitating industrial upgrading. The effectiveness of the changing industrial policy and the prospects for high-tech development in the territory are reviewed by examining the challenges and opportunities faced by the Hong Kong government in facilitating high-tech industrial development.

Role Of The State

The Turkish retail industry is experiencing a transformation towards larger-scale retailing. This restructuring has occurred at a time when an assertive corporate private sector has begun to look ready to take the leading role from the state in the development process; and when efforts (real and perceived) towards a cautious and gradual retreat of the state from economic activities have been intensified. This paper addresses the transformation and, because of the above mentioned simultaneity, places substantial emphasis on the role of the state in the development process and in the changes recently experienced in the distribution system. In the process, the paper compares the Turkish experience with those of other countries in which the role of the state has been far-reaching.

Policy Engagement

This article revisits the developmental state literature that stresses the unitary role of the state in steering economic development in East Asia. Focusing on the Korean state actors’ diversity and their agency after the trend of globalization and democratization, this article highlights various state actors as agents and looks into how the role of state actors has changed with industrial development, using the setting of the Korean online gaming industry over the past two decades. By examining government policy measures on the industry, I found that the state actors have actively engaged with the industry, however, this agency has not been uniform due to the different purposes of the actors and sometimes led a detrimental effect against the needs or expectations of the industry. The findings, thus, contribute to the literature by suggesting the potentiality of agent-driven institutional change and the heterogeneity that comes from the state actors’ policy engagement.

Clusters as integrated formations of enterprises are the global phenomenon. They behave to the variety of network structures and differ in the presence of innovative constituent, that allows to adapt to the changes in a changeable competition environment. The processes of their creation and functioning pass in regional institutional environments and need attention and support of regional power. One of forms of this support there are mechanisms of state-private partnership. It is well-proven that conceptually cluster politics is a major instrument of technological reengineering of productive base of domestic enterprises. She can be effective at the observance of certain principles. Their essence and directions of action are considered. Forming of competition production and realization of the programs of technological reengineering depends on the select model of industrial politics. This politics must take into account the historical features of development and current situation. In today's Ukraine such politics has situation and conjuncture character, directly depends on dominant in the country of public and economic ideology, formed on the basis of permanent informal mutual relations and rules of behavior between the state, business and society, that, accordingly, determines aims, general strategy and specific of tool of development of industry. At development of models of effective industrial politics in Ukraine it follows to take into account the row of existent organizationally-administrative and institutional limitations. Ignoring of priority of industrial development on the modern stage creates an economic danger.

Role Of The State

This chapter spells out the process of Plan formulation in India since Independence, with its turns and twists, to maximize the rate of economic growth, ensure its sustainability, and improve the standard of living of the people. It delineates the change in form and content of planning from state control on economic activities to neo-liberal economic reform measures, which placed reliance on market mechanism. Describing the roles of central and state governments in the formulation of Five Year Plans, it outlines the proactive role of the state in the pre-reform period. It shows how under economic reform, the space of production and trade relinquished by the state was filled by the private sector, and the major responsibility of growth was transferred to it. It summarizes the role of planning in a market economy and indicates certain issues, which make state intervention in markets a justifiable necessity.
