商品描述
In Asian Economies: History, Institutions, and Structures, veteran economist and professor Jamus Jerome Lim delivers an insightful and up-to-date discussion of recent economic developments in Asia, from the rise of the East Asian dragons to the developing nations poised to be major sources of this century's growth. You'll explore the key economic features of Asian economies via historical and contemporary case studies and discover analytical concepts you can use to better understand these diverse economies.
In the book, you'll examine the Asian powerhouse economies--including China, India, and Japan--as well as the newly industrializing economies known as the Four Dragons: Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore, and Taiwan. You'll also consider the "Tiger Cubs" of Southeast Asia: Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.
The author discusses whether West Asia is in the midst of an "Economic Arab Spring," along with some of the most pressing contemporary concerns in Asian economies. He also includes examinations of monetary policy--like Japanese deflation and various Asian financial crises--and major financial and economic reforms taking place today and in recent history.
Asian Economies pays careful attention to the enduring legacy of economic history on the future prospects of the countries discussed in the book, as well as the vast importance of political-economic institutions in shaping this trajectory. It also closely considers the dramatic differences between Asian countries and how those differences impact the fiscal and policy choices made by Asian economies.
Perfect for undergraduate and graduate students of economics, Asian Economies is also an ideal resource for students who aspire to become practitioners at multinational corporations or financial institutions but lack a deep background in economics.
