Book description
The extraordinary economic performance of Asia is arguably the most important economic phenomenon of the last fifty years. Recovering from the shocks of colonial control, today, the world of Asian business is a rapidly changing scenario in which home-grown companies compete against multinationals for market share and market access. This collection focuses on the role of entrepreneurship - both private and state - in propelling Asian economic growth in the five decades since the end of the Second World War.
The 21st century is now being heralded as the 'Asian Century'. This book helps us to understand what has made this possible.
