Présentation de l'éditeur

The Asian Pacific, Second Edition, provides a thought- provoking introduction to both the internal and international politics of the fifteen mainland and island countries of East and Southeast Asia, including Japan, North and South Korea, China, and Vietnam. Beginning with an examination of the colonial experience and its impact on the growth of nationalism and the formation of modern political and economic institutions, the book utilizes cross-national comparisons to illuminate the transformation of traditional cultures and their adaptation of Western ideologies. This book offers students, businessmen, journalists, other professionals and ordinary citizens with a fascinating, current introduction to the overall anatomy of political, economic, and cultural development in Asian Pacific countries to date.
