Organizations such as ASEAN and EU were formed to promote economic growth, social progress and cultural development among their members. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the transformation which the newest members of ASEAN (Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Laos) and the newest members of EU (ten new Members from Baltic, Central and Eastern Balkan regions) have experienced during the last two decades (1990–2010). It throws light on the different social, economic and political causes which support these historical changes. Emerging markets such as the Mekong region and Central Europe where new forms of capitalism are flourishing have been captured in this book. Their policies in privatization, regionalization, industrial growth that support a new and deregulated form of capitalism have been mentioned in detail. The author stresses upon the capacity and strengths of these two hitherto “weak states” to face worldwide and regional challenges.

"Regionalism is under stress. The European Union has been challenged by the Eurozone crisis, refugee flows, terrorist attacks, Euroscepticism, and Brexit. In Latin America, regional cooperation has been stagnating. Studying Europe and Latin America within a broader comparative perspective, this volume provides an analytical framework to assess stress factors facing regionalism. The contributors explore how economic and financial crises, security challenges, identity questions raised by immigration and refugee flows, the rise of populism, and shifting regional and global power dynamics have had an impact on regionalism; whether the EU crisis has had repercussions for regionalisms in other parts of the world; and to what extent the impact of stress factors is mediated by characteristics of the region that may provide elements of resilience"--

The global 'financial' crisis at the turn of the decade has accelerated changes in the relative standing of major regions. As both the US and Eurozone economies have confronted a series of setbacks and struggles to find their second breath, so Asia, Latin America and even Africa have picked up the slack and have been able to maintain high levels of growth. The resilience of the Global South questions whether we are witnessing an evolution towards a regional rebalancing or even global restructuring. This responding volume has four interrelated topics. It explores the transformation taking place in/with regard to the financing of development in the Global South and the apparition of new players in the field. The emergence of 'New Regionalisms' in the South and the usefulness of these experiences for comparative studies of regional relationship is explicated. It turns its attention to new forms of transnational governance that are emerging and the role that a novelty of actors play in this 'new multilateralism'. Finally, it looks into the implications of this trio of novel directions and players for analyses and policies.

Taiwan's economic growth since the 1970s has roots in its pre-war development and post-war formation of the Pacific trade triangle. By highlighting the historical perspective of the Japanese linkages and the geographic vantage point of Taiwan–Japan–USA trade triangle, Economic Development of Taiwan features a collection of papers by Frank S T Hsiao and Mei-Chu Wang Hsiao. Published mostly between 1989 and 2002, their analyses on Taiwan's pre-war and post-war early economic history debunk the myth of the country's post-war rags to riches story and revalue the myth of "wise" government policy. Timely and accessible, this unique volume shows how early Taiwanese experiences of economic development can be valuable paradigms for emerging economies of Asian, African and Latin American countries in this age of globalization. Contents:IntroductionOverview of Economic Development of Taiwan:Taiwanese Economic Development and Foreign TradeTaiwan in the Global Economy — Past, Present, and FutureTaiwan in the Global Economy and on the End of its “Miracle”Japanese Colonial Linkages:Colonialism or Comparative Advantage? — On Agricultural Development in Colonial TaiwanColonial Linkages in Early Post-war Taiwanese Economic DevelopmentThe Historical Traditions of Taiwanese Small-and-Medium Enterprises — Origins of Taiwanese CapitalismThe Economic and Cultural Backgrounds of Taiwanese 228 Incident — An Application of Social Expectation TheoryEarly Postwar Economic Development:Product Life-Cycle and Diffusion of Technology — The Taiwanese CaseDirect Foreign Investment, Technology Transfer, and Industrial Development — The Case of Electronics Industry in TaiwanGlobalization of the Taiwanese Economy and US — Taiwan Trade RelationsJapanese Experience of Industrialization and Economic Performance of Korea and Taiwan — Tests of SimilarityEconomic Liberalization and Development — The Case of Lifting Martial Law in TaiwanDiminishing Returns and Asian NIEs — How They Overcome the Iron Law Readership: Advanced undergraduates or graduates in political science, sociology and Asian history students, and researchers of Taiwan studies. Key Features:Emphasizes the historical perspective of the Japanese colonial legacy, the geographic vantage point of the Pacific trade triangle, and the social and economic effects of the tragedy of the 2-28 IncidentEach chapter is self-contained and detailed enough to provide the background materials to those in other fields of studyThis book has well searched references in English, Chinese, and JapaneseKeywords:Economic Development;Taiwan;Colonial Linkages;Pacific Trade Triangle;Political and Cultural ChangesReviews: "The story of Taiwan's economic growth was once the metaphor for success among emerging economies. This new book, based on extensive research over many years, is a work deeply rooted both in economic and historical analysis. It shows the importance of colonial legacies; international partners and markets; technocratic expertise; and sustainable agricultural reform. This book reminds us of Taiwan's capacity for experimentation, innovation, and success in global markets. Serious scholars of Taiwan's — and the global — economy will want to read this book." William C Kirby Spangler Family Professor of Business Administration T M Chang Professor of China Studies Harvard Business School "This collection of papers provides a rigorous, insightful and systematic analysis of how the Taiwan economy developed from an agrarian economy to a high-tech power, and the role played by the Japanese legacy, democratization and the trade triangle of Japan, the US and Taiwan. It challenges the traditional Western view that the success of the Taiwan economy was led by wise government policies." Sheng-Cheng Hu Academician, Academia Sinica, Taiwan K T Li Professor, National Central University, Taiwan "This book challenges many previous interpretations of the Taiwan miracle and with support from a vast array of charts, figures, references and application of economic theories. Its scope and innumerable references make it a major resource not only for comparative studies of Taiwan's economy but also for research in developing Asian economies. Its conclusions can be disputed but not ignored." (See Full Review) Taipei Times

As Singapore progresses from a newly-independent nation to a more mature economy, the economic challenges it faces have evolved.In the 50 years following Singapore's independence, the country tackled economic challenges relating to a fledgling nation, that included launching onto a path of economic take-off, and managing workers' wage aspirations without rising unemployment. It met those challenges, successfully transiting from relative poverty in the 1960s to relative prosperity today.As the country enters the next phase of its economic development, having now surpassed the US standard of living as measured by real GDP per capita, it faces another set of challenges: How to transit from catch-up growth arising from technological diffusion from frontier economies, to generating indigenous innovation? How to face the problem of a shrinking local workforce? How to manage a shift in job preferences with rising wealth and educational attainments?This volume provides a theory of Singapore's economic development. With a coherent theory capable of explaining how Singapore got to where it is, the book analyses how the future might look like for the Singapore economy. With its forward-looking analysis, this book is valuable to students as it weaves macroeconomic data together with growth theory and highlights the interaction of economic forces with social influences and political institutions. It also serves as a good reference for other emerging economies that, like Singapore, want to avoid the middle-income trap, and for researchers interested in analysing the economic possibilities for current and future Singaporeans.
