Economic Ideas Leading to the 21st Century - Vol. 2
ASIA IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY: ECONOMIC, SOCIO-POLITICAL, DIPLOMATIC ISSUES
edited by P K Chow & G C Chow (Princeton University)
Over 250 Princeton alumni and friends from 17 countries and from classes spanning a 66-year period attended the Conference. The presentations were of high quality, as can be seen from the proceedings. The speakers and other participants came from different national and cultural backgrounds and represented different points of view. For example, in discussing US–Asia relations James Baker represented an American viewpoint, while in the same session Yoshio Hatano represented a Japanese point of view, as did Toyoo Gyohten in a different session on economic issues.
This valuable volume is a collection of frank and insightful essays on Asia-Pacific by notable Princetonians who are influential in the region.
