Globalization and East Asia: Opportunities and Challenges

The phenomenal economic growth of many countries in East Asia has no historic parallel. Globalization and East Asia: Opportunities and Challenges examines different aspects of the economic performance of the region over the past three decades, with a focus on what it takes to replicate the experience elsewhere. Nineteen of the finest presentations from the 12th International Conference of the International Trade and Finance Association in Bangkok, Thailand have been carefully selected and revised by their expert authors, providing powerful, practical economic development approaches that can be used to develop other economies. Each chapter is extensively referenced, and several use tables and charts to clearly reinforce crucial points.
