How does institutional transformation of an interventionist state take place in the era of economic globalization? This dissertation analyzes the politics of economic pilot agency reform in the East Asian state-led nonliberal economies, by focusing on South Korea and China and using Japan as the secondary case. These countries' pilot agencies, once coordinators of the "old developmental policy regime," have experienced dramatic restructuring and demise since the 1990s. This dissertation asks why and how specific new institutional choices for central state economic bureaucracies were made, when globalization provided the need to redefine the role of the interventionist state. To answer this question, this dissertation disaggregates the process of bureaucratic reform policy-making and identifies key actors to analyze the politics of state institutional choice and the effects of economic globalization in the reform policy-making process.

This dissertation analyzes the politics of economic pilot agency reform in the East Asian state-led nonliberal economies, by focusing on South Korea and China and using Japan as the secondary case. These countries' pilot agencies, once coordinators of the "old developmental policy regime," have experienced dramatic restructuring and demise since the 1990s. This dissertation asks why and how specific new institutional choices for central state economic bureaucracies were made, when globalization provided the need to redefine the role of the interventionist state. To answer this question, this dissertation disaggregates the process of bureaucratic reform policy-making and identifies key actors to analyze the politics of state institutional choice and the effects of economic globalization in the reform policy-making process.
520 $a Reforming a pilot agency is a highly political process. My case studies reveal the importance of a reformist top government leader as the agenda setter. To the leader, challenges posed by globalization are not only a constraint, but also an opportunity. Exogenous and endogenous economic pressures on the interventionist state are impetuses and rationales indispensable for the initiation of pilot agency reform. The leader can proactively interpret and utilize these challenges to drive difficult domestic reform and to further his political interests and legitimacy. Yet a leader's capacity to carry out his reform agenda is confined by power fragmentation within the decision-making structure and the leverage of the targeted agency over the decision-makers. The final institutional choice, while outwardly driven by the forces of globalization, is the result of domestic political struggles determined by the power distribution among the top government leader, other decision-makers, and the targeted bureaucratic agency in a given political system.
520 $a Intended or not, the new alignment within the economic bureaucracy significantly affects the institutional development path and economic role of the interventionist state. By analyzing the process of state institutional transformation, this dissertation also attempts to illuminate how the interventionist states in the East Asian state-led economies are evolving, possibly toward the regulatory states, in the era of economic globalization.
