Summary: BUSINESS AND POWER
Comment: POLITICAL Business in East Asia attempts to draw a link between
businessmen and politicians in power.
The various authors - most of whom are university academicians, provide clear country-studies on how governments facilitate the rise of major conglomerates and how they provide support for industrial growth.
Yet, state influence may extend beyond providing the necessary
facilities. This book uncovers the fundamental issue of the nature of
politics and business. A total of 10 chapters - two on regional outlookand eight on individual countries, highlight the development of capital and the evolution of the business-political links.
Stating that political change would have not come naturally, the bookargues that the Asian Financial Crisis became a watershed for the region.
The authors highlight how the crisis made it imperative for both governments and businessmen to review their relations.
Within this context, Political Business in East Asia, edited by University Malaya associate professor Dr Edmund Terence Gomez, offers a comprehensive introduction to the region's political economy. An interesting read for businessmen and government officials alike.
