Since the end of the Cold War, capitalism has become the dominant form of economic and political organization across the globe. This does not mean, however, that all forms of capitalism are the same. This book aims to explain why some countries have developed very different forms of capitalism and what happens when they interact. It considers the distinctive experiences of Australia’s market-based and Japan’s state-led forms of capitalism and explains what this means for future international economic competition.
