Rezensionen

'Goto, et al. fill a gap between what has been documented decades ago and the current reality of the Asian economy in the context of development economics. The authors are a group of well-trained Japanese economists with rich experience in fieldworks. The book is ideal to use as a textbook or a discussion material in both undergraduate and graduate classes. Academic scholars who would like to update their understanding on Asia as well as businesspersons and government officials who are keen to comprehend current Asia will find the book concise and insightful. Another Asian miracle is there.' Fukunari Kimura, Professor, Faculty of Economics, Keio University, Japan and Chief Economist, Economic Research Institute for ASEAN and East Asia

'The Asian Economy is an innovative and successful attempt to bring to a Western audience the results of extensive work by Japanese scholars on Southeast and East Asian development in the 21^st century. Organised mainly in terms of regional themes, it draws on the expertise of eleven authors to cover topics including migration, global value chains, informalization, innovation, and the role of China in Asia. As a textbook it will be valuable for graduate students and advanced undergraduates, and also will be exceptionally useful for policy makers and academics interested in the region.' John Thoburn, School of International Development, University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK
