This edited volume examines welfare systems in East Asia, analyzing how state welfare policies have developed under unique historical, cultural, and political conditions. The contributors explore public welfare, human services, and economic security across East Asian societies — challenging Western welfare assumptions and showing how “welfare Orientalism” shapes both domestic policy and external perceptions of Asian states.
