Gunnar Myrdal published his magnum opus Asian Drama, in 1968, to
conclude that Asia's development prospects were gloomy. Since then,
contrary to Myrdal's expectations, Asia has been transformed beyond
recognition, the development of nations and living standards of
people revolutionized. These transformations have been uneven
across countries and unequal among people. Yet, Asia's economic
progress in this short timespan has been remarkable and almost
unprecedented in history. Resurgent Asia provides an analytical
narrative of Asia's incredible economic development, situated in
the wider context of historical, political, and social factors. It
also provides an economic analysis of underlying factors that
assisted Asia's growth and the critical issues in the process of
development. Resurgent Asia studies not only the sub-regions East,
Southeast, South, and West Asia, but also the major countries -
China, India, South Korea, Indonesia, Turkey, Thailand,
Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Vietnam,
and Sri Lanka - which account for more than four-fifths of Asia's
population and income.
