East Asia and the Trials of Neo-Liberalism
A much-needed examination of the impact of neo-liberalism in East Asia in the years since the 1997 to 1998 Asian Economic Crisis. These leading contributors tackle the nature of neo-liberalism, and the forces and institutions driving it. With fresh case studies of Indonesia, Thailand, South Korea, Malaysia, China and Vietnam, showing how domestic elites are critical to the ways in which the neo-liberal agenda is manifested, modified and rejected. They also engage with the key question of why there has been a dramatic restructuring of state and economic power, with some elements of domestic elites having been decimated, others reinventing themselves, while important new elements have been constituted. This book was previously published as a special issue of the leading Journal of Development Studies.

Communication with the Cancer Patient
In many parts of the world seriously ill patients are not informed of their diagnoses. Consequences of this for the patient are not being informed about the therapy and its possible side-effects and ultimately deprivaion of autonomy. Telling the truth to a patient is not simply a matter of providing information. Rather, the truth is a matter of two-way communication, the result of a relationship between doctor and patient that develops over time in the context of a given culture. In this volume oncologists in different countries give their perceptions of how truth telling is handled in their cultures.

The Corruption of Capitalism
Politicians, financiers and bureaucrats claim to believe in free competitive markets, yet they have built the most unfree market system ever created. In this Gilded Age, income is funnelled to the owners of property – financial, physical and intellectual – at the expense of society. Wages stagnate as labour markets are transformed by outsourcing, automation and the on-demand economy, generating more rental income while broadening the precariat. Now fully updated with an introduction examining the systemic issues exposed by Brexit and Covid-19, The Corruption of Capitalism argues that rentier capitalism is fostering revolt and presents a new income distribution system that would achieve the extinction of the rentier while encouraging sustainable growth.
