Abstract
Drawing on the insights of game theory and East Asian experience, this shor t note argues the importance of co-operative solutions in achieving economi c development. To realise these, even genuine developmental states must con vince a sceptical private sector Of their commitment to economic developmen t. Because of this, credibility should be added to the mix of ingredients n ecessary for a successful developmental state.
