There are, then, powerful international forces associated with both the creation and the attempted resolution of the East Asian crisis. It is worth reiterating some of the key questions that have emerged from this chapter, and which will need to be addressed—either explicitly or implicitly—if the crisis is to be resolved. First and foremost, is the crisis a crisis of capitalism or of East Asian capitalism? Are Asian economic and political structures—even in their most technocratically competent and benign Northeast Asian 23 THE END OF ASIAN CAPITALISM?

Liberal market economies, no less than any other system, are embedded in particular constellations of state and social power. Change occurs, in this view, when legal, political and economic institutions, which were established to facilitate particular systems of economic production and to impose the architecture of social relations embodied in them, become constraints on the emergence of a new order. Hence, institutions are constructed to maintain and allocate power, not just to impose rational economic regimes (Bardhan 1989).

A key change in this regard has been the growth of disintermediated credit in the Japanese system. In other words, the control and more particularly the allocation of credit has steadily moved beyond the purview of governmental control (Leyshon 1994). Not only is this a profound transformation of domestic political relations and the relative influence of key actors within Japan’s political economy, but it is emblematic of a fundamental challenge to the very basis of East Asian capitalism. The distinctive East Asian form of a credit-based capital provision, (rather than the Anglo-American market-based model of finance), in which the state and the domestic banking sector are the principal sources of credit allocation (Zysman 1983), would seem to be directly threatened by the growing power and ubiquity of international financial markets.
