Description

History of cultural and economic change in the Asia Pacific, with a focus on the approaches to technological and industrial development which has allowed first Japan and now Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and mainland China to achieve rapid economic growth. Australia's orientation towards the region is also examined, together with the impact which knowledge-intensive high-technology industries and global economic pressures have had on this relationship.
