"This century is touted as the "Asian Century," where the strong economic performance of Asian economies has accounted for much of the growth in the world. Over the last several years, Asian cities such as Hong Kong, Seoul, Singapore and Tokyo have also gained importance as global financial hubs. What are the implications of the shift in global economic focus to Asia, and where are the growth opportunities? This book aims to provide a broad understanding of the economic developments in the region, from the rise of the East Asian dragons to the developing nations that are poised to be the next sources of significant growth, by introducing the key economic features of Asian economies through historical and contemporary case studies and presenting analytical concepts with which to understand these diverse economies"-- Provided by publisher.
