Princes of the Yen
In 2003, Werner wrote Princes of the Yen: Japan's Central Bankers and the Transformation of the Economy, later made into a documentary. The book explains Japan's post-war economy and the key factors that shaped it. It gives special emphasis to the 1980s and 1990s when Japan's economy experienced vast swings in activity. According to Werner, the stagnation in the Japanese economy is the result of the policies of a central bank less concerned with stimulating the economy that with its own turf battles and its ideological agenda to change Japan's economic structure. [4]
From a war-time economy that was heavily controlled and directed which was essentially continued through peacetime and which led to the massive push to increase market share throughout the world which nearly resulted in the domination of the Japanese economy over all others, through the willful determination of two bank governors, Yasushi Mieno and Toshihiko Fukui, who were educated (indoctrinated) in the United States, the Japanese economy was deliberately destroyed in order to carry through structural reforms (the neoliberal agenda----privatization, deregulation, liberalization). Three decades later, the Japanese economy has still not recovered from these reforms.
