Public Governance and Development in the World’s Five Leading Economies
[ send me this essay ]
A 19 page paper discussing the balance of government regulation and economic growth in the United States, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom and France, the world’s five leading economies in terms of GDP. All of the leaders differ quite considerably from each other in the manner in which they oversee and regulate business and business activity, even the three leaders in Europe. Of course the UK differs from European Union (EU) countries, but even France and Germany (both EU members) hold many differences between them. The bottom line is that all of the leaders hold at least some public policies that limit business, and some are highly restrictive. Although it might not be reasonable to claim that these countries achieved their leadership positions in spite of government policy, it is certainly valid to claim that most will need reform in public governance if they are to retain their leadership positions. Bibliography lists 16 sources.
