In Transparency and Authoritarian Rule in Southeast Asia, Rodan
rejects the notion that the 1997-98 Asian economic crisis was
further evidence that ultimately capitalism can only develop within
liberal social and political institutions, and that new technology
necessarily undermines authoritarian control. Instead, Rodan argues
that in Singapore and Malaysia external pressures for transparency
reform were, and are, in many respects, being met without serious
compromise to authoritarian rule or the sanctioning of media
freedom.
