Reviews

'It serves as an ideal text not only for Asia Pacific regional studies but for those analysts who seek a deeper understanding the implications of globalsiation and forms of capitalist political and economic regulation.' - Australian Journal of International Affairs 'As a study on ideas and institutional evolution, as much as on East Asia, the volume is a powerful argument for considering how the past constrains the present, how local ideas and institutions ensure that the effects of even hegemonic forces will not be uniform, and how heterogeneity will remain a persistent feature fo global politics.' - The Journal of Asian Studies 'It serves as an ideal text not only for Asia-Pacific regional studies but for those analysts who seek a deeper understanding of globalisation and of competing forms of capitalist political and economic regulation.' - Australian Journal of International Affairs
