The Cordon Sanitaire [electronic resource] : a single law governing development in East Asia and the Arab world  /
Kadri, Ali.author.
This work compares the development experiences of East Asia and the Arab world. It posits that in view of the collapse in socialism and its ideological retreat, their development performances are intensely over determined by their modes of integration with world capital. For East Asia, it's through manufacturing of civilian-end use commodities and for the Arab World, through militarism. The book is a unique attempt approaching the topic from the theoretical angle using an analytical comparative perspective.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Chapter 1: Introduction and background -- Chapter 2: The higher rates of surplus through commercial exploitation -- Chapter 3: Development in the shadow of imperialism -- Chapter 4: Security and economic development -- Chapter 5: The rise of China and Closing remarks.
