  • The Japanese Political Economy: A Crisis in Theory1

  • Chalmers Johnson
  • Journal:
    Ethics & International Affairs / Volume 2 / March 1988
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    28 September 2012, pp. 79-97

  • Late 1980s economic theory failed to account for Japanese-style economies. Leading thinkers ignored the success and achievements of these systems by passing them off as exceptions due to “cultural uniqueness,” or by altering the facts to fit their theories. Chalmers Johnson argues that the success of the Japanese economy is neither random nor a function of culture but due to policy, particularly to Japanese industrial policy.

  • The growth hormone response to insulin induced hypoglycaemia in alcoholics

  • R. J. Chalmers, E. H. Bennie, R. H. Johnson, H. G. Kinnell
  • Journal:
    Psychological Medicine / Volume 7 / Issue 4 / November 1977
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    09 July 2009, pp. 607-611

  • The growth hormone response to insulin induced hypoglycaemia was studied in 7 alcoholic in-patients who had been abstinent for 2–11 days and in 10 normal controls. Blood samples were taken at intervals after the injection of soluble insulin (0·1 U/kg body weight). The growth hormone response was impaired in 4 of the alcoholics and the depression was not related to differences in blood glucose or plasma free fatty acids. The Cortisol response was also impaired in the alcoholics. We conclude that alcoholics observed after alcohol withdrawal may have a depression of hypothalamic/pituitary function.

  • The nonsocialist NICs: East Asia

  • Chalmers Johnson
  • Journal:
    International Organization / Volume 40 / Issue 2 / Spring 1986
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    22 May 2009, pp. 557-565
    Print publication:
    Spring 1986

  • Ellen Comisso and her colleagues are interested in the differences among all nations in their strategic economic responses to the petroleum price hikes of the 1970s—and, by extension, in why some states consistently outperform others in economic adjustment and growth. In particular, Comisso wants to know why the centrally planned economies (CPEs) of Eastern Europe reacted differently from one another to the shocks of the 1970s and yet, as a group, consistently performed less well than some reference groups, notably the East Asian NICs (newly industrialized countries). At the heart of Comisso's and the other authors' concerns are the notions of state “structure” and “process,” particularly as derived from Peter Katzenstein and the other contemporary comparative political economists, since on structural grounds the East European CPEs appear similar to the quasi-corporatist or “bureaucratic authoritarian” NICs elsewhere in the world. They differ primarily in terms of performance—or so it seems. Why? Are structure and process the right variables, and if they are, have they been correctly conceptualized?
