Jonathan Rigg

Challenging Southeast Asian Development (eBook, ePUB)

The shadows of success

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Over the course of the last half century, the growth economies of Southeast Asia - Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam - have transformed themselves into middle income countries. This book looks at how the very success of these economies has bred new challenges, novel problems, and fresh tensions, while hang-overs from years of underdevelopment also sometimes remain to be resolved.
