xiv, 308 p. : ill., map ; 23 cm. "This comparative examination of the political economy of contemporary Thailand, Indonesia and Burma presents case studies of these countries during the periods of economic boom and examines the causes and political consequences of economic crisis. It examines how and why some countries have adjusted to the consequences of economic crisis better than others. It also finds that globalisation, and all that comes with it, has created both crises and opportunities for these countries, as they have undergone considerable economic and political change." "The book is suitable for students, academics and researchers interested in Southeast Asian politics, and those studying comparative politics and international political economy".
