In addition to discussing the sharp contrasts between the region’s three major economies—China, India, and Japan—Lim also provides an overview of the rise of the Dragon economies of the East, to the resource-rich economies of the West. The book adopts a unique approach to the treatment of these economies, weaving in aspects of these countries’ economic geography and history, their idiosyncratic institutions and structures, along with providing a comparative and international perspective. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book offers: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCareful emphasis on the geographic preconditions and enduring legacy of economic history on the contemporary and future prospects of each of the countries and regions discussed within\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExaminations of the importance of the political and economic institutions, as well as market and industrial structures, in shaping the trajectories of the economies considered in the book\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscussions of the dramatic differences and similarities between the Asian economies, as well as how these differences shape these economies’ interactions with the rest of the world\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for undergraduate and graduate students of economics, \u003ci\u003eAsian Economies\u003c\/i\u003e will also earn a place on the bookshelves of business and finance professionals seeking to understand the economies of the world’s most diverse and dynamic region.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbbreviations xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Asia as a Continent in Flux 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 China: The Dragon Awakens, But Will It Roar? 23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Japan: Asian Standard- Bearer or Has-Been? 79\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 India: Emerging Giant or Slumbering Elephant? 115\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Rest of South Asia: Finding Relevance in the Shadow of India 153\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 NIEs: From Zero to Hero, but in Need of a New Economic Model 173\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Southeast Asia: Can Underachieving Cubs Escape the Middle-Income Trap? 213\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Central Asia: Crossroads in a Globalized World 255\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Western Asia: An Economic Arab Spring? 271\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSources of Figures 313\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 321\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Economics [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Economics\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Economics%20%5BKC%5D%22\"\u003eKC\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52501137948952,"sku":"9781119913160","price":27.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781119913160.jpg?v=1786211894","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/asian-economies-history-institutions-and-structures-hardback-9781119913160","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
