Industrial policy has returned to the mainstream, with subsidies as an increasingly popular policy instrument of choice. While East Asia is deeply invested in the open global trade regime, multilateral rules are outdated, weakly enforced and ill-equipped to manage the widening gap among countries with unequal fiscal capacity. This issue of the East Asia Forum Quarterly examines the rationale, forms and effects of industrial policy resurgence,...

What does it mean to come of age in a society where the paths to adulthood are increasingly uncertain, yet the pressure to succeed remains relentless? In today’s China, youth navigate the fading promise of reform-era mobility, the grind of economic slowdown, and a moralising narrative that glorifies hardship. Two expressions have come to define this generational mood: neijuan (内卷, ‘involution’), the feeling of being trapped in endless...
