Over the past forty years, East Asia has been radically transformed
from a war-damaged sub-continent to a region of global
pre-eminence. With new, highly developed scientific resources,
great economic strengths, significant global trading links and
equally powerful financial resources, East Asia is now one of the
most dynamic regions in the global system. This book illuminates
the historical development trajectory and contemporary
circumstances of the countries of the region. Embracing a
cross-disciplinary perspective, it summarises the history of the
region and goes on to focus upon the rise of East Asia since the
ruins of the Pacific War. Analysing the region's basic strengths
and the distinctive elite development strategies across the various
countries, it also examines areas of domestic, intra-regional and
international conflict. It covers the basic ground of political
economy, society, culture and politics, whilst also taking care to
locate the contemporary region in its own history and asking, what
further change can be expected in the future? Providing an
excellent introduction to the study of the region, this book is an
important read for students and scholars of East Asian politics,
history and development.
