The European Economy
The shape of the world economy is changing. Globalisation and regionalism have led to the development of powerful but interdependent economic blocs. Much economic potential has shifted from the Atlantic to the Pacific area. In view of this The European Economy argues that economists need a broader, worldwide base of information if these processes and their effect on Europe are to be fully understood. Topics discussed include: * Europe's experience of the growing trend of regionalism * the single market * plans for economic union * EU enlargement * Europe's triad rivals * EU external trade and trade relations * technology and innovation * environmental issues This fresh approach highlights the issues which will challenge European countries into the twenty-first century.

The Foreign Economic Policies of Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan
Dent (Southeast and East Asian economy, U. of Hull, UK) comparatively studies the newly industrialized economies of East Asia, arguing that the foreign economic policies of all the governments is motivated by a search for economic security. The basis of his study is a collection of interviews 156 with government, business, and NGO actors, in which he questions not only technical aspects and recent events of policy, but also changes in underpinning ideologies, values and ideas, and contesting influences of political and economic actors. While significant differences are found, Dent contends that the common developmental context of the three actors is a situation of developmental statism and semi-peripheralization.

Evidence from Asia reminds us that the importance of locality in shaping development has not diminished despite deepening globalisation in the modern era. Furthermore, by accepting the prevalence of diversity we are able to learn certain lessons of development from each other, both within and across scholarly disciplines. ...
