1 IBZ416 Contemporary Japanese Economy Instructor: Prof Dr Sierk Horn AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Japan remains one of the most powerful and dynamic economies of the world. The country s economic catch-up and over-taking in key industries within a exceptionally short time span the Japanese economy managed to bridge the gap between a quasi developing country to a leading industrialised nation has evoked a wide spectrum of reactions. Awe, assumptions of conspiracy or even economic warfare. Regardless of the juxtaposing notions of learning from Japan or confronting Japan the common denominator is the need to understand the structure and factors of its economic rise. In the wake of the collapse of the speculative financial bubble Japan has witnessed the longest recession period in the post-war era. "The lost decade" has replaced the "Japan as No1" syndrome and until recently the image has been that of a tumbling giant rather than that of vibrant economy. The Japanese economy is, however, on its way to recovery. Economic indicators suggest nothing less than successful reforms and revival. Amid rapid internationalisation and the prognosticated advent of a new global system, the Japanese economy once more underlines its flexibility to adjust to new challenges. It is the juncture of continuity and change of the economic system at which this module is situated. Knowledge about Japan is essential to make informed corporate decisions. In taking a fresh look at the structural characteristics and recent developments, the module will equip students with the awareness and understanding of current opportunities and challenges posed by the world s third largest economy. On completion of this module, students will have: acquired broad factual knowledge concerning the economic practices and institutions of Japan; examined Japan s integration with the world economy; studied structural characteristics, inherent problems and current reform efforts of the Japanese economy. ASSESSMENT In-class presentation (20%): Topics will be allocated in session 3. Report (40%): Hand-in date is August 23 July. Exam (40%): The final exam will be held on 26 July.
