Examines various models of state-guided development (SGD) employed in East Asia, with specific focus on the SGD programs of Korea, Singapore, & Taiwan. It is suggested that SGD has produced economic security in all 3 states, but by diverse means: South Korea's growth-obsessed plan, Singapore's growth-with-stability model, & Taiwan's equity-&-stability-based growth model. These programs have developed as the result of conscious political action, & have generally achieved their goals. Unlike states that have pursued more than one goal from the growth-stability-equity spectrum, single-goal states, eg, growth-obsessed Korea, have obtained growth at the expense of stability & equity. Although the combination of goals can be viewed as compromising, the East Asian experience suggests that these goals are mutually complementary, & that multigoal options are preferable in developing nations. 2 Tables, 51 References.

Copyright © The Author(s), 2021. A diverse labechiid stromatoporoid assemblage that includes 16 species in 8 genera was found in the Upper Ordovician Xiazhen Formation (mid–late Katian) at Zhuzhai, Jiangxi Province of South China. The assemblage is characterized by a combination of (1) North China provincial species succeeding from their origination in the Darriwilian, including Pseudostylodictyon poshanense Ozaki, 1938, Labechia shanhsiensis Yabe and Sugiyama, 1930, Labechia variabilis Yabe and Sugiyama, 1930, and Labechiella regularis (Yabe and Sugiyama, 1930) and (2) South China endemic species, including three new species (Labechia zhuzhainus Jeon n. sp., Labechiella beluatus Jeon n. sp., Sinabeatricea luteolus Jeon n. gen. n. sp.), and four species in open nomenclature (Rosenella sp., Cystostroma sp., Pseudostylodictyon sp., and Labechia sp.). The finding of Labechiella gondwanense Jeon n. sp., Stylostroma bubsense Webby, 1991, Stylostroma ugbrookense Webby, 1991, and Thamnobeatricea gouldi Webby, 1991 in the formation indicates that Tasmania was closely related to South China and had a closer paleobiogeographical relation with peri-Gondwanan terranes than with Laurentia. In addition, the occurrences of Labechia altunensis Dong and Wang, 1984 and Stylostroma species support a close biogeographic link between Tarim and South China through the Middle to Late Ordovician interval, corresponding with the results from other fossil groups such as brachiopods, conodonts and chitinozoans. The diverse labechiids from the Xiazhen Formation improve our understanding of the diversity of Ordovician stromatoporoids in peri-Gondwanan terranes and the biogeographic affinities among Australia (especially Tasmania), Tarim, and South China.
