"This book argues that the economies of Southeast Asia need to reform their institutions if the previous rapid development is to continue and focuses on the determinants of, and implementation of, such reform. Against the backdrop of Southeast Asia's importance in the world economy, it is hardly possible to overestimate the need to understand this process of change."--BOOK JACKET.
