In Japan`s Big Bang, Professor Declan Hayes explains the benefits for both Japan and the world if the Big Bang reforms - deregulation, adoption of international standards of accounting transparency, and the opening of its markets to real international competition - succeed, and the disaster that looms for Asia and the world if the reforms fail.

Japan`s Big Bang notes how reformers in previous Japanese eras pushed through their remedies. Oda Nobunaga, the father of modern Japan, for example, incinerated the enemies who opposed his reforms. Professor Hayes , in remaining Hapan`s bureaucrats of their illustratious predecessors, serves them a warning; that if they do not push through the Big Bang reforms, they will throw Japan and the world into chaos, and, perhaps, themselves onto a bonfire, ultimately of their own making.

Professor Hayes` critical appraisal of Japan`s Big Bang is a welcome break from the consesus, which has previously stifled debate on Japan`s financial and economic shortcomings. His proposal - and his warning of the bonfire that awaits reform laggards - are an important and integral part of the reform process.

Japan`s Big Bang traces the hurdles Japan must overcome to once again reign as one of the world's preeminent financial powerhouses. With an academic`s analytical eye and the tenacity of a financial beat reporter, Declan Hayes explores the tangled mess that was and is Japan`s economy, and explores the remedial action Japan must follow to regain and sustain its position as the economic engine of Asia.
