Key events in Asia's recent history have included the end of the
Cold War, the Asian Economic Crisis and the 'war on terror'. This
is a critical assessment of these events, and of the interplay of
security and economics in shaping political regimes and modifying
market systems. Based on the notion that market systems are
inherently political and conflict-ridden, this collection clarifies
and explains the conflicts shaping the path of neoliberal
globalization. Collectively it represents a disciplined and
systematic address of four overarching questions: * What are the
significant conflicts emanating from neoliberal globalization, and
what are their implications? * What are the implications of new
security concerns for these conflicts, and what are their impacts?
* How are conflicts associated with globalization and security
affecting social and economic policy directions? * Can these
directions be reconciled with the reproduction of existing
political regimes, or do they threaten their basis? In addressing
these questions, the essays depict neoliberal globalization - in
the new security context - as being able to accommodate a range of
political regimes. This fascinating collection is a must-read for
those with a professional interest in the region post-9/11. This
book was previously published as a special issue of the Journal
Critical Asian Studies.
