This book analyzes the role of employment relations in the context of economic development in some of the key Asian economies - China, Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, the Phillipines, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan. In recent years, these Asian economies have become increasingly more open and export-driven, and there is strong interest all over the world in the Asian economic "miracle" - among practitioners and scholars alike. Although much has been written on this region, few books have concentrated on the human resource aspects of this growth. The authors take the basic premise that the success of these countries has lain in low wages and suppression of workers' rights, but recognize that as employment relations evolve, enterprises either pull out due to rising wages, or adapt and remain - cases are provided to illustrate both these features. Cases also test the hypothesis that unless a synergy is created between firm-level and state-level human resource policies, economic growth is unlikely to be sustainable.
How can we account for the dynamic growth of East and Southeast
Asian countries? Much of the debate has turned on the question of
the 'state' versus the 'market' as exclusive (and often competing)
explanations of the successful performance of individual countries.
This book explores the distinctively interdependent nature of the
East and Southeast Asian experience. As firms create a regional
organization of production, the growing interdependence of national
labour markets is one major outcome.
