Cities, Transport and Communications: The Integration of Southeast Asia Since 1850 de H. Dick

Cities, Transport and Communications: The Integration of Southeast Asia Since 1850: A Modern Economic History of Southeast Asia

Autor H. Dick, P. Rimmer
en Limba Engleză Hardback – aug 2003
This book shows the impact of globalization on Southeast Asia, which over a few decades has evolved from a loose set of war-torn ex-colonies to being a centre of global manufacturing. Focusing on cities, the authors explain the emergence of modern Southeast Asia and its increasing integration into the world economy by showing how technological change, economic development and politics have transformed the flows of goods, people and information.

Recenzii

"The authors have done an excellent job of assembling wide-ranging material and presenting it in an easily accessible form. There is an exhaustive bibliography and the book has numerous figures and tables. The book is well-indexed and should become a basic reference in the field of transport and communications." - Terry McGee, The University of British Columbia, Canada
