The Progressive Action Party (PAP), which has since independence forme d the government of Singapore, has... avoided the path to liberal democracy through its deployment of a discourse of "Asian Values." The article makes extensive use of the concept of hegemony through the use of discourses on "Asian Capitalism" and "Asian Democracy"».
