CORREA RESTREPO, FRANCISCO. JAPAN'S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: FROM THE GENESIS TO THE SO CALLED ECONOMIC MIRACLE. Rev.fac.cienc.econ. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.1, pp.57-73. ISSN 0121-6805.  https://doi.org/10.18359/rfce.2654.

The aim of this paper is to establish the origin and evolution of the economic development of Japan in the twentieth century, particularly in the era of the so-called Japanese economic miracle. For this purpose a historical illustration of educational, economic and political reforms established from the Edo era to the 1970s is made, as well as different economic and political situations that happened in Japan during the period 1945-1970 XX. It is concluded that to understand the economic development of Japan is necessary to analyze the social, political and economic changes that have occurred in the country during the nineteenth century and, in particular, the role of government and business groups in the insertion of the Japanese economy in the international markets.
