Abstract

By the summer of 2001, Japan's economy had been generally stagnant for nearly 10 years - since the collapse of the bubble economy in 1990-1991. The development strategy that drove the nation during earlier decades was fulfilled, and by 1989 Japan's gross domestic product (GDP) per capita exceeded that of the United States. Facing another downturn, Prime Minister Koizumi seemed ready politically to undertake real change. A rewritten version of an earlier case.
