The Keys to Societal Development: Comparing Explanations
What makes a society succeed or fail? What does societal success mean?
Each society has its own answers to these questions. However, there are challenges that all societies will have to overcome on the path to development.
Professor Gordon Redding, co-editor of the Oxford Handbook of Asian Business Systems, examines several explanations for this and the common denominators proposed in success or failure.
This free lecture is presented by the HEAD Foundation, a Singapore-based think-tank devoted to research and policy advice in the fields of higher education and societal development in Asia.
The HEAD Foundation welcomes all who are interested in its fields of enquiry and policy.
