Developmentalism and Dependency in Southeast Asia cover

This book provides a detailed cross-country study of the automotive industry in South East Asia. Abbott argues that, contrary to prevailing opinion, the diffusion of manufacturing in the Asia-Pacific has been characterized by hierarchical networks of production linked to Japan for technology.

'As a work providing a plethora of data and a well-articulated analysis of history-specific developmentalism and dependency relationship in the automotive industry, this book is a sure read for scholars specializing in political science and economics and serves as a useful analystical tool' - The Journal of Asian Studies
