Discussed in the context of an impending "Global Millennium", this book challenges the notion that an "Asian Century" is imminent. It seeks to examine the institutions that have had and will have an impact upon economic activities in East Asia. It argues that the inherent conservatism and inflexibility of East Asia's economic and political institutions will interfere with processes necessary for sustaining the high growth rates that might have led to the region's global dominance.
