Description: A survey of the following issues: deals with the rapid growth rates which have led some to believe that the axis of world commerce has tilted away from the Atlantic to the Pacific - the extraordinary upheaval in international financial markets which has led to the world debt problem and wildly shifting financial parameters within which nations, corporations and individuals have to work - the restructuring of productions processes throughout the world, a restructuring that has depressed some communities, opened up unexpected growth possibilities for others, and generally changed the economic geography of the world. It is part of the penguin "Asia-Pacific" series.
