Inhaltsangabe

Approaching the topic from a Weberian perspective, Leong (Institute of Southeast Asian Studies, Singapore) examines the developments of policy initiatives and policy-making dynamics in Singapore's paternal state, arguing that too many important sectors of Singapore are left out of the development and modernization efforts. He focuses on the institutional mechanisms of the state, contending that the contestation of political interests are largely responsible for the shape of policy.
