The Asian road to the market has generally been seen as a model of success and the object of widespread admiration.

It does so by identifying the link between alternative transition models, public policies and household responses on the one hand, and key welfare changes on the other. Even in countries experiencing sustained growth, there have been unmistakable signs of deep social strain.
