Summary "Economic Development in a Globalized Environment: East Asian Evidences scrutinizes the major debates in development economics, using documented cases, and analytic reasoning for support. Instead of the simplistic North-vs-South view, it further explains international technology transfer in a tripartite relationship of the North-North rivalry, the South-South competition and the North-South alliance. Case studies, statistical series and analytical model are deployed to set forth the reasoning."--BOOK JACKET
