Globalization And Development In East Asia (Routledge Studies In Emerging Societies)

East Asia is widely regarded as the main "winner" in contemporary globalization, unscathed by the economic crisis of 2008, with its leading new industrializing nations and emerging economies. While 20th-century globalization was mainly led by the West, the 21st century is ushering in different dynamics. The re-emergence of Asia involves alternative visions of the world and different perspectives on globalization. This volume seeks to address these dimensions, turning to local reflexivities, notably in South Korea and China, to explore the key debates in sociology and political economy within East Asia rather than from an outside view. 9780415537391 0415537398 0 BOOK East Asia NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=NqMnrgEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
