TRADE AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT IN EAST ASIA: CATCHING UP OR FALLING BEHIND
Book ID/图书代码： 04289512B53530
English Summary/英文概要： Trade as an engine of growth has played a catalyst role in East Asian development; through vigorous study of performances in past decades, East Asian trade and industrialization experiences may offer some lessons for other developing countries. This book covers trade and industrial structures for ten countries and regions including Japan, China, Hong Kong, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Thailand.
The author addresses the comparative advantages and trade similarity indices of Asian economies from regional and global perspectives. He also analyzes the impacts of regional trade agreements from both member and non-member countries’ perspectives. After a vigorous examination of the sources of export growth by the methodology of the constant market share analysis, the book examines the trade–investment nexus, the development of fragmentation of manufacturing production, and trade in parts and components as the dominant trade flows after the mid-1980s. It then studies the trade complementarity index among countries to further pursue the analysis of natural trading partners, and looks at the Krugman–Baldwin hub–spoke thesis by empirically identifying the ‘degree of hub-ness’ in three major markets in China, Japan, and the USA. Various scenarios of economic integration in East Asia are assessed and an open regionalism is proposed for East Asian economic integration and sustainable development in the conclusion of the book.
Students and researchers of international trade, economic development, and Asian Studies will find the data and analyses in the volume invaluable in understanding the economic development of the Asia Pacific.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 贸易作为增长的源动力对东亚地区的发展起到了催化剂性质的作用；通过对过去几十年表现的大力研究，东亚地区的贸易和工业化经验也许可以为其它发展中国家提供一些教导。这本书覆盖了包括日本、中国、香港、韩国、新加坡、台湾、印尼、马来西亚、菲律宾和泰国这十个国家和地区的贸易和工业结构。
作者从地区和全球视野强调了亚洲经济的比较优势和贸易相似性指数。他还从成员国和非成员国的视野分析了区域贸易协定的影响。在通过恒定市场份额分析方法对出口增长来源的大力检查后，这本书审视了贸易投资关系，工业生产分裂的发展以及20世纪80年代中期以零部件贸易作为主导的贸易流动。为了进一步对自然贸易伙伴进行分析，这本书还研究了国家之间的贸易互补性指数，还研究了通过经验主义鉴定中国、日本和美国三个主要市场‘枢纽程度’的克鲁格曼-鲍德温(Krugman-Baldwin)枢纽发言论文。对东亚经济一体化各种可能发生的情况进行了评估，并在这本书的结论中提出了东亚经济一体化的开放地区主义和可持续发展。
进行国际贸易、经济发展、和亚洲研究的学生和研究人员会发现这本书中的数据和分析对理解亚太地区的经济发展具有无可估量的作用。(LNL & CK)
