Asian Economic Integration in an Era of Global Uncertainty

by Shiro Armstrong and Tom Westland (editors)

About this book

This collection examines the connections linking Asian economies through trade, finance and production networks. Contributors assess the extent of regional integration and the relationship between regional cooperation and changes in the wider world economy.

Studies consider financial liberalisation, movement through international value chains, employment within production networks, the ASEAN Economic Community and India’s trade strategy. Other chapters evaluate East Asian economic arrangements and revisit the question of whether Asian economic activity has become less dependent on external markets. Tables, charts and technical appendices accompany the comparative analysis, making the volume a detailed account of the region’s economic relationships in the years preceding publication.
