Zusatztext 'This set is a useful reference reading to policymakers! research fellows and academics on globalisation and economic development in South-East Asia and Africa. The subject is so vast that it would not be just to remark only what it does not cover (there are important missing matters such as the emerging Trans Pacific Partnership; or profound considerations of Singapore and South Korea)! but rather what it does: the set is a useful collection of articles on select national experiences regarding development in a changing globalised world. As such! students may find in this set a useful reading material for their courses. In addition! the set is a highly recommended item for the libraries and shelves for those that deal with development! income distribution and globalisation.'?- Miroslav N. Jovanovic!
