Описание:East Asian economies have achieved rapid and sustained developments for quite a long period of time. The region as a whole has now been one of the three major poles of the world economy.

Some emphasize the common elements of the East Asian economic development, while others look into significant differences among individual countries’ development experience. This course is to help students understand various issues related with East Asian development and get an in-depth knowledge of the process of rapid economic development.
