Ippei Yamazawa is one of the fathers to the study of Asia-Pacific regional cooperation in Japan and has contributed hugely to the development and work of APEC over many years. APEC is a crucial trans-regional arrangement that draws the United States into constructive economic engagement with East Asia. This book makes it clear why APEC remains such a crucial element of regional economic architecture and defines an agenda going forward to which regional leaders should aspire. Here is a first rate exposition of the priorities for regional cooperation in Asia and the Pacific. --Peter Drysdale, Professor Emeritus, Australian National University(Length x Height x Width) in mm :152 x 229Weight in grams: 277Author Biography:Ippei Yamazawa is Professor Emeritus, Hitotsubashi University, Tokyo.Binding: PaperbackKeywords: EconomicsPage count: 160Imprint: ISEAS-Yusof Ishak InstitutePublication Date: 20111014
