In recent years China, Vietnam, Taiwan and Singapore have been
transformed from impoverished developing nations into strong and
internationally competitive economies, but it is now clear that
this rapid development has come at a high price in terms of
ecological sustainability and environmental protection. The
critical question for the future is -- how can the state effect the
greening of industries and business without inhibiting economic
growth? Can they 'leapfrog' the development process and build
industrial economies that are both competitive and environmentally
sustainable? This edited interdisciplinary volume uses case studies
of all the important newly industrializing economies of Asia to
address these vitally important questions. It makes an important
contribution to the large international body of studies on
environmental management and the greening of industries. It's
findings are relevant to all developing countries, as well as to
those with a particular interest in contemporary Asia. The work
also addresses a wide readership of professionals and consultants
in various state institutions and international development
agencies, such as the World Bank, the United Nations Environment
Program, the Ford Foundation and the Asian Development Bank.
