The Asia-Pacific region is rapidly becoming the main area of growth
in the global economy in the 21st century. Recent developments in
the movement of people, goods, services, and information are
closely linked to the latest round of globalization, of which the
effects on this region are particularly dramatic.The papers in this
volume are by leading scholars, business leaders and government
officials from the region. They include Yuan-Tseh Lee, Nobel Prize
Winner in Chemistry, who reflects on the global flow of knowledge
and talent; and Alfonso Yuchengco, one of the region's most
respected business leaders and diplomats, who discusses
transnational businesses, diplomacy, and China's re-emergence as a
world power. Other papers present new insights into the processes
and policies governing flows of migrants, trade, investment,
transport, information technology, and ideas. This book originated
from the 2006 Annual Conference of the Ritsumeikan Center for Asia
Pacific Studies, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University, Beppu, Japan,
supported by an International Scientific Meetings Grant from the
Japan Society for the Promotion of Science. It will be of interest
to all students and scholars of this dynamic region.Pookong Kee and
Hidetaka Yoshimatsu are Professors in the College of Asia Pacific
Studies, Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University.
