Liberalism Disavowed: Communitarianism and State Capitalism in Singapore Chua Beng Huat

Examines the rejection of Western-style liberalism in Singapore and the way the People's Action Party has forged an independent non-Western ideology. This book explains the evolution of this communitarian ideology, with a focus on three areas: public housing, multiracialism and state capitalism, each of which poses different challenges to liberal approaches.
