Asia's Four Little Tigers: A Comparison of the Role of Education in Their Development.
Morris, Paul
Comparative Education, v32 n1 p95-109 Mar 1996
In four rapidly developing east Asian nations, educational similarities include strong national curricula and highly competitive selective systems. However, the countries differ in educational funding sources; access to education, particularly tertiary education; extent of state control; relative emphasis on general and technical education; nature and role of the school curriculum; and overall role of education in development.
