HOW ASIA WORKS - JOE STUDWELL KARTONIERT (TB)

Until the catastrophic economic crisis of the late 1990s  East Asia was perceived as a
monolithic success story. But heady economic growth rates masked the most divided continent in
the world - one half the most extraordinary developmental success story ever seen  the other
half a paper tiger. Joe Studwell explores how policies ridiculed by economists created titans
in Japan  Korea and Taiwan  and are now behind the rise of China  while the best advice the
West could offer sold its allies in South-East Asia down the economic river. The first book to
offer an Asia-wide deconstruction of success and failure in economic development  Studwell's
latest work is provocative and iconoclastic - and sobering reading for most of the world's
developing countries. How Asia Works is a must-read book that packs powerful insights about the
world's most misunderstood continent.
