This final chapter examines the generalizability of our findings by considering other East Asian developmental state (DS) countries, including Japan, Taiwan, and China. Theoretical implication of this book mainly includes organizational adaptability and institutional changes through elite competition. First, this book claims that the reason why East Asian developmental states, including Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and China, could sustain economic development over quite a long period is not due to some fixed institutional elements such as centralized, cohesive, and strong states. Contrary to the DS literature, elite competition can be beneficial to economic success through collective deliberation and flexible adaptation if they are properly coordinated into collaboration for shared goals like economic development and national competitiveness. In addition, this book concludes that unlike the institutionalist DS literature, this book emphasizes changes by competition to better account for endogenous changes.
