Economic growth and rise of four Asian tigers
This module examines the societal challenges that emerged alongside Korea’s rapid economic growth, a journey shared with other Asian Tigers.
Despite impressive growth, issues like low birth rates, intense competition, and urbanization have raised complex questions about sustainability. This week, we’ll reflect on the consequences of imbalanced development and explore how social problems can transform into opportunities for solutions.
What you’ll learn in this video:
- High-growth strategies of Korea and the Four Asian Tigers and the resulting social issues
- Analysis of sustainability threats like low birth rates, competitive societies, and urbanization
- Understanding the social imbalance that became a shadow of economic growth
- Approaching social problems as opportunities for changemakers
By examining these challenges, we can better understand how social tension and imbalances develop. Embrace this opportunity to view social problems not as obstacles but as chances to innovate and contribute meaningful solutions. Ready to take on the mission? Join us in reshaping the future!
