Résumé anglais The Japanese Experience and State Reforms in Asia. Might the economic crisis which is affecting Eastern Asia be the catalyst for a radical and rapid transformation of the State and method of governance in this region of the world ? In the cases of South Korea, Thailand and Indonesia reforms are necessary as a result of the urgency of the situation and are subject to constraints imposed by the IMF. Other countries had started upon a reform strategy well before 1997. This is the case of Japan, whose situation is exemplary for several reasons. From a historical perspective, this country paved the way for reforms. The Japanese action programme offers a wide panorama of structural and functional reforms. The effect of the economic crisis seems to be fully playing its role in accelerating the process in hand. However, will the Japanese experience retain its relevance as a reference for institutional changes in Asia, just as it did in the past in relation to methods of economic development ? Without being able to respond to this question with any certainty, given that certain Asian programmes are hardly yet off the ground, it is worth noting a degree of convergence in all these reform projects.
