This expansive Handbook provides a detailed, comprehensive, and current study of Asian public policy and governance. Exploring inequalities across the continent, it outlines policy knowledge production, shedding light on sustainability, innovation, inclusive development, well-being, and climate justice in Asia. Bringing together renowned experts in the field, the Handbook investigates the evolution of public policy in Asia, including the rise and fall of a specifically Asian ethos. It also demonstrates the contextual characteristics of a comprehensive spectrum of Asian countries of differing regional and international significance and size, including Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, the Philippines, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand and beyond. Contributing authors address the institutional and historical embeddedness of policymaking, covering philosophical approaches, technological participation and ideational tensions. They examine Asia’s global policy leadership in the 21st century, discussing important developments including the impact of cultural forces in driving narcotics policy and the role of women in Asian policymaking. The Handbook of Public Policy in Asia is an essential tool for students and scholars in Asian politics and public policy, public administration and political science. Its unique insights into Asian policy styles and norms will greatly benefit politicians and practitioners.
