Asia Pacific Readings in International Economic Relations describes the main historical, theoretical and policy developments leading to closer economic integration and cooperation in the Asia Pacific region. With an introduction to the issues by Ross Garnaut and Peter Drysdale, this book brings together a representative part of the literature that has emerged from analysis of Asia Pacific regionalism over the past twenty years. This selection of articles provides a valuable reference for the large community of people who now recognise that Asia and the Pacific are central to the world economy.
