With these trends in mind, the collection of articles in this volume sheds light on economic and political issues of natural in East Asia. The articles discuss a comprehensive range of topics:Macroeconomic performance,foreign direct investment, trade policies, financial markets, security arrangements, surveys of recent developments in South Korea, People's Republic of China, and Taiwan.Integration within ASEAN focusing on AFTA and sub-regional co-operation. Integration of Indochinese economies in to greater Southeast Asian markets.
