Greetings.
I am pleased to announce the publication of my edited volume
Globalization and Economic Nationalism in Asia (Oxford: Oxford University
Press) 288 pp. ISBN: 978-0-19-964621-0
This collection documents the different ways in which Asian governments
have been pursuing economic nationalism even as they have been integrating
with the world economy. The book challenges the popular view that with
globalization, either the role of the state becomes redundant or that
states are unable to purposefully intervene in the economy. The book argues
that since most states pursue national interests, which largely include
economic development, they work with national business and often intervene
on their behalf to create internationally competitive industries. States
are thus viewed as integral to capitalist development, and economic
nationalism is neither theoretically nor empirically redundant.
Contributors from Asia and elsewhere present wide-ranging arguments and
evidence to counter the view that with globalization economic nationalism
is passe. Instead, they demonstrate that states in Asia are active in
shaping trade, investment, technological, industrial, and financial
outcomes. Using interdisciplinary social science approaches that are also
historically sensitive, this book critically assesses why and how states in
select Asian countries continue to intervene in the economy in both
familiar and novel ways. Countries covered include India, China, South
Korea, Singapore, Japan, and the East Asian region as a whole. Together
they illustrate why these states practice economic nationalism even as they
enthusiastically embrace the generalized process of globalization through
domestic reforms and liberalization.
