This book analyzes the impact of the global financial crisis and the Great Recession on the Asian economy. Dilip K. Das delves into the most significant and germane issues related to the Asian economy during the crisis, how it coped with them and how it eventually emerged from them

Examines both aspects of the contemporary phase of economic globalization. This book covers large thematic areas of the global economy and globalization through the channels of trade, financial flows, attention to trends as well as historical perspective. It is suitable for scholars and students interested in a balanced view of globalization

Topicality of Asian economy has refused to fade for almost four decades, if anything it has been levitating. The Asian economy has changed markedly since the economic and financial crisis of 1997-1998 and is continuing to evolve. As a scholarly subject matter, Asian economy has not stopped attracting academicians, policy mandarins, decision makers in the arena of business and students of Asian economy. The Asian crisis was a cataclysmic event for the region and brought to the surface several systemic limitations, like those in the financial sector, corporate governance, regulatory oversight, legal framework, and exchange rate management. Managers of Asian economy need to get to the bottom of these acutely problematical systemic issues. Additionally, Asian economies need to change with the demands of time and devise their post crisis development strategy. Asia's growth model, that served it so well for four decades, is overdue for renewal so that it can re-strengthen its bonds with the ever-evolving regional and global economic reality. The old growth model is likely to be less relevant and effective in the post-crisis future of the Asian economies. It is sure to run into the wall of diminishing returns. An outstanding feature of Asian Economy and Finance: A Post-Crisis Perspective is that unlike most Asia-related books, it is written in a comprehensive and authoritative manner and covers large areas of Asian macro-economy and finance. The noteworthy areas of focus include global and intra-regional trade and investment, as well as financial and monetary aspects. In-depth discussions have been provided on regional integration through expanding trade, financial flows, regional production networks, and financial and monetary co-operation. In taking a contemporary or post-crisis view of the Asian economy, this book offers the newest knowledge related to relevant themes on the Asian economies as well as the latest concepts.

Dilip Das addresses one of the most important aspects of international trade, namely regional trade and regional integration agreements. He analyses the latest trends, evaluates the pattern and gauges the progress of regional integration in the global economy over the post-war and contemporary periods
