Jumpstarting South Asia
This unique book analyses how further economic reforms and closer relations with East Asian countries could enhance economic growth and integration in South Asia. It makes a powerful and realistic case for a two-pronged strategy in South Asian countries to (i) complete the economic reform process that they had begun in the 1980s and 1990s and (ii) implement the second round of "Look East" policies (LEP2). The book also identifies the unfinished policy reform agendafor each South Asian country and the components of the LEP2 that they should implement.
National Strategies for Regional Integration
'National Strategies for Regional Integration: South and East Asian Case Studies' examines how each country's integration with its neighbours and more distant regional economies might be improved. The country cases illustrate the diversity of Asian development experience and offer lessons for other countries and regions interested in developing national strategies to foster regional integration.
Economic Stabilization Policies in ASEAN Countries
The five-country study found in this volume examines how the ASEAN countries performed aggregatively during the 1970s in response to several shocks. The sources of the shocks are traced and the subsequent policies are then described in detail to understand their appropriateness as stabilization tools. Some of their country papers apply econometrics to understand underlying structures.
Renaissance of Asia
A recent study by the Asian Development Bank notes that by 2050, Asia's per capita income would rise six-fold to reach Europe's levels today, one of many indications of Asia's OC re-emergenceOCO. By then, Asia's share of global GDP would have doubled and it would have regained the dominant economic position it once held some 300 years ago before the industrial revolution. What is less well-known is that during the previous eras of globalization, Asia was also regionally integrated and globally connected. During the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries, Asia was divided and fragmented. This unique book argues that, led by the economic dynamism and OC re-encounteringOCO between China and India, we are witnessing the OC Renaissance of AsiaOCO. As in the bygone eras, Asia is integrating within itself and the global economy is intensifying, now driven by market-oriented production networks and economic policies. Asia is starting to be OC re-centeredOCO as trade and investment relations between South Asia and East Asia surge. Asia's rise is a restoration of the past, not a revolution. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the economic development of Asia.

Singapore and Asia in a Globalized World
This book is a spin-off from a highly successful seminar series jointly organized by the Division of Economics of the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the Ministry of Education (MOE) of Singapore. The seminars discuss contemporary domestic and regional economic issues and public policies that are relevant to the everyday lives of Singaporeans. The wish to introduce these economic issues to a broader audience outside the confinement of a lecture theatre, came to fruition, with the completion of this book.This book contains 13 chapters that are grouped under three sections. Under the section, ?Public Policies and Economic Issues of Singapore?, Singapore's public policies in the areas...
Brexit and the Consequences for International Competitiveness
This book provides a study on the impact of Brexit on international competitiveness and in doing so, presents a theoretical account of regional disintegration. In recent decades, the theory of regional economic integration has expanded following growing integration processes taking place not only in Europe, but in other continents too. The result of the EU Referendum in the United Kingdom on 23 June 2016 revealed that regional integration does not have to be a one-way process as was perceived for many years. Despite well-developed models of economic integration within economic theory, there still lacks an analytical explanation of the mechanics of disintegration. For many years, integration was commonly perceived as a beneficial process, and while disintegration is not desirable, this led to normative bias in the research on regional integration. This book, therefore, makes an important contribution to theoretical and empirical developments of regional economic disintegration.
3-in-1: Governing A Global Financial Centre
3-in-1: Governing a Global Financial Centre provides a comprehensive understanding of Singapore's past development and future success as a global financial centre. It focuses on three transformational processes that have determined the city-state's financial sector development and governance — globalisation, financialisation, and centralisation — and their impacts across three areas: the economy, governance, and technology. More importantly, this book takes a multidimensional approach by considering the inter-related and interdependent nature of these three transformational processes. Just like the 3-in-1 coffee mix that is such an ubiquitous feature of everyday life in Singapore, the individual ingredients of Singapore's success as a global financial centre do not act alone, but as an integrated whole that manifests itself in one final product: the global financial centre.
