Description - Pacific Economic Relations in the 90s: Conflict or Cooperation by Richard A. Higgott
In recent decades the Pacific has become the most dynamic region within the global economy. A sequence of outward orientated "economic miracles" along the East Asian rim stands in sharp relief to the slowdown of economic activity in other regions. This has gradually shifted the centre of gravity of the global economy towards the Pacific. Alongside these achievements, however, the Pacific region has simultaneously displayed a propensity for "the problems of interdependence" to affect an increasing number of issues. These tensions have been sufficient to thwart the realization of visions for a political community within the region. "Pacific economic relations in the 1990s" is a collection of original essays by scholars in the field of international political economy, it focuses on the future of the Pacific economy. These investigations are made timely both by the mounting practical interest in the question of international economic co-operation within the region, and by the end of the Cold War era during which Pacific dynamism took shape.
"Pacific economic relations in the 1990s" should prove useful to policy makers, academics and anyone concerned to understand the contemporary political economy of this rapidly changing region.
