Does Asian-Style Democracy Exist?
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing this question. South Korean
president Kim Dae Jung insists that "democracy has to go hand in hand with economic growth," a

are not particularly fond of it. Such changes are apparent even in China, where the communist
government is fully opposed to democracy. There is indeed an Asian-style democracy, and it is
one that may have lessons for friends in the West. Singapore is used as example throughout.
