Straddling Economics and Politics: Cross-Cutting Issues in Asia, the United States, and the Global Economy

Pages : 203
Book Description
The 38 essays in this book were written between the end of 1996 and the middle of 2001, and published in The Wall Street Journal, The Asian Wall Street Journal, The Wall Street Journal Europe, The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, The International Herald Tribune, The Weekly Standard, Critical Review, Society, The Milken Review, and International Economy. Ml the essays appear in their original, unedited form, and none has been altered in light of the world-shaking and world-shaping terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. Two of the essays (Chapter 29 and Chapter 35), although written in 2001, weren't published until early in 2002. Most of the cross-cutting issues dealt with in these essays are as pertinent in the post- as in the pre-9/11 environment. Whether globalization is good or bad and for whom, how to measure it or how to influence it, remain timely questions now as they were then. The admission of China and Taiwan to the World Trade Organization (WTO), and the economic and other consequences of this change in status, will continue to be of regional as well as global significance. So, too, are issues addressed in other chapters, including the case for and against a "new international economic architecture," the out-look for a strong or a weak euro, the ramifications of China's continued if fitful progress toward capitalism, and the "fairness" and other effects of changes in U.S. marginal tax rates or in government spending as central elements in U.S. fiscal policy.

How Asia Can Shape the World
Author: J. Ørstrøm Møller
Publisher: Institute of Southeast Asian Studies
ISBN: 9814311332
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 556
Book Description
Asia will redraw the map of economic progress over the next twenty-five years. Growth is necessary to solve economic and social problems, but harder to achieve as the age of plenty gives way to the age of scarcities. The challenge opens the doors for an Asian economic model based on shifting of productivity for the individual to groups, ecological productivity instead of economic productivity, and a reversal to traditional Asian values - less materialistic than Western values. A new paradigm for economic thinking emerges to replace the one launched in the West 200 years ago.
