Is there a link between the collapse of the Soviet Union, the
radical reforms in China and Vietnam, and the current crisis in
East Asia? David Lockwood argues that the common factor in each is
the crisis of state-controlled economies, besieged by the
developing forces of globalization. This book examines the collapse
of the Soviet Union not as the 'end of history', or the beginning
of a 'new world order', but as an illustration of processes that
are taking place the world over. The author concludes that it was
globalization that brought down the communist system. Globalization
continues to threaten state-controlled economies - from the
remaining 'socialist' state to the NICs of East Asia.
