Abstract

After examining the critical role of the two five year plans (1962-67, focusing on infrastructure development and import substitution; 1967-72, emphasising export oriented industrialisation) in the rapid economic progress of (S) Korea, this paper discusses how mismanaged financial liberalisation led to severe economic troubles of the country in the late 1990s.
