A brilliant and prolific economist, Professor Yoshiro Miwa explores the Japanese government s efforts to plan the economy in the 1930s and 1940s. If ever any government operated within an institutional structure that would have fostered economic planning, the Japanese government had that structure here: popular support, a compliant legislature, control over the necessary incentives. Notwithstanding that structure, the government s efforts to plan the economy failed disastrously. With incisive analytic tools, Professor Miwa explores the reasons for the failure. J. Mark Ramseyer, Mitsubishi Professor of Japanese Legal Studies, Harvard University, Massachusetts
