Summary: | 碩士 === 國立暨南國際大學 === 公共行政與政策學系 === 92 === The general aim of this thesis is to investigate how the EA developmental states transform and change in a globalized economy and democracy. Unsatisfied with the orthodox EA developmental states theory and their revisions, I will argue that the transformation of the EA developmental states should not be investigated from a one-sided or state centric perspective. Therefore, this thesis will attempt to construct an theoretical framework that can be applied in the practical case nowadays.
I am particularly concerned about the overall nature, and transformation of these states and the changing role of the state, so it is necessary to deconstruct the state by investigating resources of autonomous power the state and its resistant forces, then try to re-conceptualize the contents of autonomous power resources of the state and resistance from different aspects. Such an analytical recasting could unearth distinctive development trajectories and dynamics and provide comparisons and contrasts in the state theory debate. By doing so, it will be a plausible way to probe and infer the scope, contents and possibilities of how the EA developmental states can intervene in its resistances in the future, and to reshape and redefine its possible boundaries within different aspects.
