Export Oriented Industrialisation and Domestic Rural Market--Comparative Studies of the Western Pacific Regions.

亚洲国家一直通过出口导向的工业化发展经济。亚洲地区的经济发展与农业市场密切相关。我们选择了三个亚洲国家来研究工业化与市场的关系。此外，还对与日本的关系进行了比较研究。以往在这一领域的研究往往忽视了农业对工业化的重要作用，因为许多研究都是在香港或新加坡的经济发展中进行的，而农业在这些地区的经济发展中所起的作用很小。然而，在韩国、泰国或土耳其等人口众多的国家，农村经济在购买工业商品、为工业提供劳动力和资本方面发挥着至关重要的作用。农村经济作为一个市场是很重要的，特别是在发展的初始阶段，因为生产的商品主要是针对国内市场，而农村经济占了很大一部分。在这些国家，工业化是为了进口替代而开始的。在初期发展的基础上，随后采取了出口导向的工业化战略。本研究通过分析统计数据，进行实地调查，说明农业部门对亚洲经济发展的重要性。研究结果总结在附件报告中。我们将对这一课题进行进一步的全面研究，研究结果将在一年内公布。

Asian countries have been pursuing economic development through export-oriented industrialization. Economic development in Asian region is closely related to the market of agricultural sector. We have chosen three Asian countries for the study of the relationship between industrialization and market. Furthermore, comparative study of the relationship with Japan was also made.Former studies in this field have a tendency to neglect the important role of agriculture on industrialization, because many of the studies are on economic development in Hong Kong or Singapol where agriculture has minimal role in development.However, countries, such as Korea, Thaiand or Turkey with large population, rural economy has an essential role in purchasing industrial commodities, providing industries with labor forces and capital. Rural econmy as a market is important especially at the initial stage of development, because commodities produced are mainly targeted to the domestic market where rural economy has a major portion.In these countries, industrialization started for the purpose of import substitution. Based on the initial development, export oriented industrialization strategy was taken afterward.This study illustrated the importance of agricultural sector on economic develpoment in Asia by way of analyzing statistical data, conducting field research.Results of the study is summarized as an atached report. Furhter comprehensive study on this subject will be conducted and the results will be published in one year.
