Recenzii
Richard Katz, who knows Japan's economy and society inside and out, offers a book full of careful analysis and bold recommendations. It is a precious wake up call to a Japan that sometimes acts like a frog that stays in boiling water.
For years, Japan has sorely needed to unleash the sort of creative energy that made it an economic superstar in the postwar decades. This highly original book provides evidence that digital technology, new generational attitudes, improving gender equality, and international inspirations are converging with demographic pressures and emerging government support in ways that create the possibility of a new burst of entrepreneurial vigor.
Richard Katz looks beyond Japan's institutional rigidities, complacency, and aversion to risk to explore important new 'megatrends' that hold the possibility of a rebirth of the entrepreneurial spirit that fueled postwar Japan's economic miracle. Hopeful, insightful, and written with verve, The Contest for Japan's Economic Future deserves to be read by anyone concerned about Japan's future trajectory.
Richard Katz provides a fresh, up-to-date analysis of an important topic that has bewitched two generations of scholars. While many have proposed that the solution to Japan's economic problems lies in reforming the big incumbents, Katz argues that generating a host of new companies is at least as indispensable.
This important new book challenges the conventional thinking that Japan is doomed to suffer from a paucity of entrepreneurship. Rather, its penetrating analysis of significant contemporary developments provides a compelling case for an entrepreneurial renaissance in Japan.
Katz's deep research-much of it informed by interviews with young entrepreneurs-is brimming with ideas to resurrect the reform process.
This new book by economist Richard Katz presents a comprehensive theory for why the Japanese economy has been in the doldrums for decades, and what Japan can do to revitalize itself.
How Kishida's disappearing Japanese premiership is a gift ... Richard Katz writes in his new book The Contest for Japan's Economic Future
Richard Katz, author of the recently published The Contest for Japan's Economic Future, argues that the fact Japanese stock prices are once again flying high "does not mean that Japan is back". Productivity in Japan has fallen behind that in other advanced economies and there is a need for a "better balance in the country's corporate structure between giants and entrepreneurs with fresh ideas", Katz said at a recent talk at the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan. Japan has the lowest share of entrepreneurs among some 25 leading countries, said Katz, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs. More damningly, perhaps, he added that corporate Japan is "stuck in the analogue era", rather than graduating to the digital maturity others have achieved.
Richard Katz... provides an indispensable reality check about the state of Japan's economy in The Contest for Japan's Economic Future, challenging some of the hype that has surrounded the latest boom in Japanâs stock markets... Institutional change in an advanced industrial democracy is extraordinarily hard, and it is unlikely to follow a linear path. But Katz has done a service in showing how Japan has already begun to change, what its political and business leaders could do to promote additional reforms, and what Japan has to gain from embracing a new model of capitalism.
Katz, former adjunct professor at the NYU business school, is my longtime guide through the thicket of Japanese economics. His first book, Japan: The System that Soured (1998), is one of the best explanations of why the country's economy went off the rails. This newest work builds on that analysis and offers compelling suggestions on how to fix it.
