Between 1960 and 1997, East Asia's high-performing economies consistently grew faster than the world rate of growth. This remarkable record rests in part on innovations in policy and governance made by governments in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand. Now, in the wake of the late 1990s financial crisis and in the midst of a worldwide economic downturn, these governments must make tough policy choices, some of which may upset the very groups who were the biggest "winners" from the high-growth years. What insights should guide today's leaders as they work to restore a unified commitment to genuine national development? How can democratic principles assist them in this task
