Singapore in Global History: ICAS Publications series
Editat de Derek Heng, Syed Muhd Khairudin Aljunieden Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 mar 2011
Singapore in Global History explores Singapore’s past and present through the lens of global history. It analyses Singapore as a city-state and adds an interdisciplinary perspective to the study of its growth. The studies presented here demonstrate that Singapore’s history and growth have implications that extend to Southeast Asia and the world. This book will be of interest to economists, sociologists and political scientists, as well as those interested in imperial history, business history, and networks.
