Answer 1

No, well yeah that would be a good addition but they want you to explain the ways that japan followed the pattern of industrialization set by the west and in which way did it drift away from it. And what did Japan and the west have in common in terms of industrialization and what did they definattely not have in common. Have they not gave you a minimum/maximum word limit?

Answer 2
