Innovative East Asia

Innovative East Asia

The salience of East Asia in the global economy is now unquestionable, and with a population of nearly 1.9 billion, its expanding markets will strongly influence the tempo of international trade and the growth of global incomes. However, while the potential of East Asian economies has been amply demonstrated, their future performance is by no means assured. The crisis of 1997, the uneven recovery, the intensifying trade competition, and the rapidity of technological change, call for initiatives by governments and by firms on several fronts. East Asia needs to sustain its hard-earned stability by recalibrating its fiscal and exchange rate policies, by strengthening social safety nets and governance, and by invigorating financial, regulatory, and legal institutions. Yet these are only preconditions; future economic performance will depend on linking growth to productivity. The major contribution of 'Innovative East Asia' is that it identifies and analyzes the ingredients of an innovative economy, discusses how these can be meshed together by government policy and market initiatives, and demonstrates how stability can be a stepping stone to innovation-driven growth.

Sources of economic growth are well understood. Successfully translating that knowledge into sustained high rates of growth is harder to achieve. Relatively few countries have done so. Of those, China—with an unmatched average GDP growth rate of 10 percent between 1978 and 2008—stands out.At the crux of China’s success lie two cities: Beijing, the powerful hinge of the Bohai region, and Shanghai, the economic axis of the thriving Yangtze River Delta. The performance of these two megacities, along with a handful of other urban regions, will determine China’s economic fortunes in the decades to come. Can their momentum be sustained? Can the growth rates of the past be continued into the future?Two Dragon Heads explores the contrasting development options available to Beijing and Shanghai, and it proposes strategies for each city based on the current and acquired capabilities of each, the experiences of other world cities, the emerging demand in the national market, and likely trends in global trade. Its fi ndings, which are supported by a wealth of research, will be of particular interest to policy makers, urban planners, business people, and researchers.This is a fascinating book about the future development paths of the 'twin capitals' of China: the political capital of Beijing and the commercial capital of Shanghai. The authors weave economic growth, urban development, and technological innovation into a seamlessly coherent and cogent analysis. The book not only offers important insights and lessons for the development of other megacities in China, but also has long-term implications for many developing countries undergoing similar transitions.

Although the relative size of the public sector has been much reduced worldwide since the early 1980s, it remains the dominant borrower from the banking system and responsible for the majority of the non-performing assets of banks. Drawing upon new firm-level survey data, this volume assesses how changes in the ownership structure of SOEs affect management, governance, innovation, and performance, comparing these SOEs to other types of firms in China. It also considers China's reform efforts against the experiences of other transition economies. The research reveals that the medium- and longer-term gains from privatization far outweigh costs of adjustment and that the precise mechanics of privatization have little effect on outcomes. The volume argues that privatization of large industrial SOEs and market-based consolidation of small- and medium-sized enterprises will be necessary to transform them into competitive and innovative world-class firms. Chapters include: China's Industrial System: Where is it, Where it Should be Headed, and Why; Reform in China, 1978-1997; The Accelerated Change in Enterprise Ownership, 1997-2003; Chinese Ownership Reform in the East European Mirror; Empirical Evidence on the Effect of SOE Reform in China; and Making Privatization Work.

Post-Industrial East Asian Cities

Post-Industrial East Asian Cities

Shahid Yusuf; World Bank

Stanford University Press

Throughout East Asia, the growth process and its sources are changing in a number of important respects, especially for middle- and high-income economies. Growth is increasingly coming from the strength of innovative activities in these economies rather than from factor accumulation as in the past. Such innovative activities especially in producer services and the creative industries are concentrated in high-tech clusters in globally linked cities. Drawing on a wide range of literature and on interviews with firms, this book explores these issues with a focus on six East Asian cities: Bangkok, Beijing, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore, and Tokyo. It suggests how policies and institutions can induce and furnish an urban environment that supports innovative activities. A valuable resource for researchers, urban planners, urban geographers, and policy makers interested in East Asia, "Post-Industrial East Asian Cities" presents the latest findings on creative industries in East Asia and their effect on economic growth.

Although China's centrally planned economy is a little more than a shadow of its former self, the closely inter-linked reforms of the enterprise and banking sectors are still incomplete. The relative size of the state-owned enterprise sector has been much reduced, however, the sector remains the dominant borrower from the banking system and is responsible for the majority of bank non-performing assets. Thus in the interests of financial stability it is crucial to implement the remaining reform agenda. The accession to the WTO has also made it more urgent for China's most-dynamic state-owned enterprises and her banking industry to compete through innovation, continuing process upgrades, and active pursuit of strategies aimed at succeeding in global markets. In order to do so, not only do large state-owned industrial enterprises need to be privatized, but the government also needs to create the conditions that will result in market determined consolidation of small and medium size firms into entities with a core strength. Under New Ownership explores the effects of ownership reform in China on the performance of reformed industrial state-owned enterprises, and proposes privatization as a course of action to truly transform these enterprises into world class firms which compete on the basis of sound strategy, effective organization, and innovation. It draws upon newly collected firm level survey data to assess changes in the ownership structure of state enterprises on management, governance, innovation, and performance relative to other types of firms in China. This title provides researchers, students, and policymakers interested in the Chinese economy with in depth information and analysis on key issues related to the reform of state-owned enterprises.

Tiger Economies Under Threat

Tiger Economies Under Threat

Southeast Asian tiger economies feel threatened by competition from other countries and worry that their growth momentum might be flagging. Even though their growth rates are above the average for the world and for developing countries, they fall short of yesterday's economic performance. The underlying worry is that they presage the beginning of a downward trend, the harbingers of which are lower rates of investment, persistently low rates of total factor productivity and low levels of innovativeness. The South East Asian tigers' worries motivate three questions: First, are the tigers rightly threatened by a creeping economic sclerosis or what some observers are calling the "middle income trap"? Second, if the threat is real, what are the underlying causes? Third, are there ways of neutralizing the problems and at least maintaining if not raising the growth rates of the recent past? This book tackles these questions by means of a comparative analysis of the Southeast Asian tiger economies, centered on Malaysia. This analysis draws upon a comprehensive set of techniques and indicators to assess competitive pressures, gauge industrial and technological capabilities and to indicate the directions of industrial change in Southeast Asia could take.

Changing the Industrial Geography in Asia

Changing the Industrial Geography in Asia

A great burst of globalisation brought the 20th century to a close, creating upheaval in the world economy from roughly 1995 to 2008. And now, with the new century barely commenced, a second upheaval is in the offing following the severe financial crisis that plunged the global economy into recession in 2008-09. The first upheaval witnessed a massive migration of manufacturing and certain business services that transformed Asia into the industrial heartland of the world. The second upheaval will likely consolidate Asia's industrial preeminence and could result in a concentration of industrial activities in the two most populous and fastest growing Asian economies - China and India. As the two Asian giants become the industrial equals of the United States, Germany, and Japan, the ramifications will affect trade and growth worldwide, the future of development in China and India, and industrialisation throughout Asia. Changing the Industrial Geography in Asia: The Impact of China and India examines these developments, focusing specifically on China and India. Its analysis and conclusions will be of particular interest to policy makers and academics, as well as anyone with an interest in the impacts of China and India on Asia's industrial activities.

Some Small Countries Do It Better

Some Small Countries Do It Better

World Bank Publications

Countries worldwide are struggling to imitate the industrial prowess of the East Asian pacesetters, but growth accelerations have proven remarkably transient. Building a portfolio of tradable goods and services and steadily raising the level of investment in these activities, has generally defied the best policy efforts - in particular, bringing investment ratios on par with East Asian averages has presented the greatest challenge. Hence the search is on for growth recipes not so tightly bound to investment, to manufacturing activities, and to the export of manufactured products. In casting around for such recipes validated by demonstrated results, the experience of economies which have relied more on other drivers of growth - human capital and knowledge - is highly attractive. Finland and Ireland are among the tiny band of small nations that grew rapidly for well over a decade by achieving the maximum mileage from an adequate investment in physical assets and by harnessing the potential of human capital and technologies.

"Since the 1990s, new economic geography has received a lot of attention as mainstream economists such as Krugman and others began to focus on where economic activity occurs and why. Coincidentally, international trade, location theory, and urban economics all appear to be asking the same question: where is economic activity located and why? The challenge is to explain the economic concentration or agglomeration of a large number of activities in certain geographical space. This volume breaks down the various types of cities and evaluates the key factors used to look at cities, such as innovation, green growth, spatial concentration, and smart cities in order to understand how cities work. Why is it that certain cities attract talent? How do some cities become business hubs? Why is it that few cities become increasingly competitive while others remain stagnant?

Boken är en intelligent, känslomässigt stark och skickligt berättad påminnelse om hur vi alla bär på olika versioner av verkligheten och om hur våra öden flätar oss samman på de mest oväntade vis. Ida Therén, SvDDet här tycker jag är Bromanders specialitet. Han berättar om snefejor som normalt återfinns som ett kön och en ålder i tidningsartiklar/..../ Men Bromander går inte med på det enkla narrativet. Han berättar om dem i all deras ynklighet och äcklighet, men med kärleksfull blick och hand, djupt lojal trots att de är så osköna, utan att bli alltför sentimental. Det är inte många som gör det. Eller ens kan. Rebecka Åhlund, SmålandspostenFormen är väldigt rolig men det jag tycker väldigt mycket om hos Bromander är den här idén han driver om och om igen och ibland så tror man att man ska bli trött på det men jag blir mer och mer förtjust /.../ Alla människor vill skapa, vill vara någon, vill ha gemenskap och allting bygger alltid på "vad får du från början?" Jenny Teleman, P1 KulturBromanders absoluta gehör för klass, kultur, sociologi och psykologi gör det här till en komplex och nyanserad berättelse om utanförskap, extremism och längtan efter sammanhang i en splittrad tid. Helhetsbetyg: 5. Christine Karlsson, BTJ-häftet 1, 2020Shahid/Skärvor är kort sagt en helvetiskt dyster bok. Men trots sin nattsvarta historia, trots sitt deprimerande slut, lyser den ändå upp bokhösten genom sin empatiska människoskildring. Bromander är inte ute efter att förlåta de bestialiska dåd unga européer begår nere i Syrien. Men han vill förstå bakgrunden till dem. Rasmus Landström, ETCEn svensk konvertit som ansluter sig till IS. En kvinnlig konstnär i akut livskris. Deras vägar möts på våldsamma och oväntade sätt. Henrik Bromanders Shahid/Skärvor är ett mäktigt epos om utanförskap, gränslöshet och radikala livsval. Den har två omslag och två livsöden, men bara ett slut. Håkan växer upp i Göteborgsförorten Tynnered, en tillvaro präglad av självmord och GHB-överdoser, av tjack och huliganslagsmål. I fängelset finner Håkan den stabilitet han så desperat behöver i Koranens budskap. Han konverterar till Islam, men hur djupt han än ber försvinner inte tomheten inom honom och längtan efter något annat, något större än han själv. Resan går till Syrien, till IS nyupprättade kalifat. Lovisa växer upp i Hässleholm. Hennes konstnärliga talang förblir osynlig i en strävsam arbetarfamilj där det viktigaste är att göra rätt för sig. Lovisa längtar bort, till skogen eller storstaden, allt är bättre än hålan där hon är fast. Så kommer hon in på en konstskola i Stockholm och slår sig fri. Det går bra, mer än så. Allt rullar på, karriären pekar uppåt men inom Lovisa är det något som långsamt håller på att gå sönder. Shahid/Skärvor är två berättelser i en bok, historierna möts i mitten. Det är en skildring av de små detaljerna och de avgörande stegen i två människors tillvaro i den sena stund vi befinner oss på Jorden några andetag innan slutet.
