JAPAN - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
In the years following World War
II, government-industry cooperation, a strong work ethic, mastery of high
technology, and a comparatively small defense allocation (1% of GDP) helped
Japan develop a technologically advanced economy. Two notable characteristics
of the post-war economy were the close interlocking structures of
manufacturers, suppliers, and distributors, known as keiretsu, and the
guarantee of lifetime employment for a substantial portion of the urban labor
force. Both features are now eroding under the dual pressures of global
competition and domestic demographic change. Japan's industrial sector is
heavily dependent on imported raw materials and fuels. A tiny agricultural
sector is highly subsidized and protected, with crop yields among the highest
in the world. Usually self-sufficient in rice, Japan imports about 60% of its
food on a caloric basis. Japan maintains one of the world's largest fishing
fleets and accounts for nearly 15% of the global catch. For three decades,
overall real economic growth had been spectacular - a 10% average in the 1960s,
a 5% average in the 1970s, and a 4% average in the 1980s. Growth slowed
markedly in the 1990s, averaging just 1.7%, largely because of the after
effects of inefficient investment and an asset price bubble in the late 1980s that
required a protracted period of time for firms to reduce excess debt, capital,
and labor. Measured on a purchasing power parity (PPP) basis that adjusts for
price differences, Japan in 2011 stood as the fourth-largest economy in the
world after second-place China, which surpassed Japan in 2001, and third-place
India, which edged out Japan in 2011. A sharp downturn in business investment
and global demand for Japan's exports in late 2008 pushed Japan further into
recession. Government stimulus spending helped the economy recover in late 2009
and 2010, but the economy contracted again in 2011 as the massive 9.0 magnitude
earthquake in March disrupted manufacturing. Electricity supplies remain tight
because Japan has temporarily shut down almost all of its nuclear power plants
after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactors were crippled by the earthquake
and resulting tsunami. Estimates of the direct costs of the damage - rebuilding
homes, factories, and infrastructure - range from $235 billion to $310 billion,
and GDP declined almost 0.5% in 2011. Prime Minister Yoshihiko NODA has
proposed opening the agricultural and services sectors to greater foreign
competition and boosting exports through membership in the US-led Trans-Pacific
Partnership trade talks and by pursuing free-trade agreements with the EU and
others, but debate continues on restructuring the economy and reining in
Japan's huge government debt, which exceeds 200% of GDP. Persistent deflation,
reliance on exports to drive growth, and an aging and shrinking population are
other major long-term challenges for the economy.
