First sentence: In the last decades of the twentieth century, counties in the East and Southeast Asia that had followed so-called 'Asian' models of development attributed much of their rapid economic growth to the fact that they did not rely upon provision of the same collective goods that had been crucial tot he rise of Western Europe and North America earlier that century (Dai 1998; Mahathir 1996; Mahathir and Ishihara 1995).
