Review
Northern Sweden and Economic Development
Governments around the Circumpolar world are attempting to ensure the long-term viability of northern economies, generally by supporting the natural resource economy and seeking opportunities to promote “new economy” commercial development. The challenge is formidable, in large measure because few Arctic or sub-Arctic regions have the research capability, highly skilled personnel, venture capital, accessible markets and entrepreneurial drive nece…

Technological innovation and building a ‘super smart’ society
The Government of Japan is pursuing an ambitious policy programme, Society 5.0, designed to respond to the formidable economic and social challenges facing Japan and the world, capitalize on Japanese technological sophistication and commercialization abilities, and provide a coordinated, forward-looking strategy that could ensure Japan’s leadership in the technological revolution. Society 5.0 is the label attached to a vision of ‘whole of governm…
Creating business out of bright light
Governments have attached a high priority to the commercialization of science and technology as a foundation for participation in the “new economy.” Scientists typically view their work in less commercial terms and focus on making contributions to knowledge. When governments invest in large‐scale scientific infrastructure, like synchrotrons, they are increasingly concerned about the business and employment outcomes. This study examines the attitu…
Digital content promotion in Japan and South Korea
Already leading the world in the development of consumer electronics, South Korea and Japan have been leading innovators in the creation of digital content economies. Both governments recognized both the commercial potential and the employment possibilities associated with the digital content industry. The sector, however, did not fit easily with existing industrial and technological models of economic development, particularly due to the small s…
Digital content promotion in South East Asia
Digital content production – the production of ideas, words, images, videos, animation or other commercially valuable information for distribution through digital means – has emerged in recent years as a major economic sector. The content industry, however, does not fit easily with either national industrial policies or national innovation strategies, the two means governments use to promote economic development. Content policy is often equated w…
Japan’s Green Growth Policies
The idea of Green Growth–achieving economic growth without sacrificing environmental sustainability–appeals to many national governments. Governments envisage promoting energy saving and pollution-reducing environmental technologies and new forms of energy and seeing these products and services form their nation’s economic base. The Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development has studied the possibilities of Green Growth extensively and …
Japan's Rescue of the IMF
When the 2008–2009 economic crisis hit, countries that had long dominated the International Monetary Fund (IMF) found themselves both the source of the financial problem and unable to provide financial assistance to major global governance organisations. With only US $200 billion available to assist a list of ailing countries, the International Monetary Fund found itself in difficulty. To the surprise of many observers, Japan made a bold commitme…
Local Economies and the Future of Environmental Sustainability in Japan and Asia
Japan is committed in principle to addressing global climate change and to bringing Japanese lifestyles, economy, and policies in line with the requirements of environmental sustainability. With the signing of the Kyoto Protocol in 1997, the country became a global exemplar of efforts to control CO2 emissions. Subsequently, successive national governments have attempted, with varying degrees of success, to mobilize government, business and the ci…
Japan in the age of globalization
"The multiple and diverse forces of globalization have, indeed, affected Japan significantly over the past decades. But so, it must be said, has Japan influenced a variety of critical global developments - globalization is not a one-way street, particularly for a nation as economically influential and technologically advanced as Japan. The chapters in this collection examine the impact of globalization on Japan and the impact of Japan on the forc…
Reinventing Japan Inc
Japan has been a key player in the global competition based on scientific and technological innovation. Through a series of Science and Technology Basic Plans, the national government sought to restructure the country’s approach to scientific and technological development, with initiatives ranging from a fundamental restructuring of public universities to major investments in regional clusters. Collaboration with business has likewise been a cent…
