Opis: Alternative Capitalisms Geographies of Emerging Regions - Denis Shaw, Robert Gwynne, Thomas Klak

The Geography of Emerging Regions provides an in-depth and stimulating introduction to the histories and contemporary development problems of the non-core countries of the world economy. Dramatic shifts in economic policy and the nature of political institutions have occurred in these countries over the past decade, much more substantial than those experienced within advanced economies. Here, the authors assess the impact of these shifts at different scales of analysis, from the supranational to the local. Drawing on the experience of Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, Latin America and East Asia in particular, the authors seek to illuminate the many contradictions in contemporary discourse on the so-called 'emerging regions', and look forward to the future and the type of world that might develop away from the core advanced economies.PREFACE PART ONE: CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORKS Chapter 1: aaC--A"EMERGING MARKET COUNTRIESaaC--Au AND ISSUES OF GLOBALIZATION Chapter 2: CONCEPTUALIZING THE WORLD SYSTEM Chapter 3: CAPITALISM, IMPERIALISM AND THE EMERGING WORLD: AN HISTORICAL OVERVIEW PART TWO: THE HISTORICAL CONTEXT OF ALTERNATIVE CAPITALISMS Chapter 4: CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE AND THE FORMER SOVIET UNION Chapter 5: CAPITALISM IN LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN Chapter 6: EAST ASIA: THE JAPANESE AND CHINESE DEVELOPMENT MODELS AND THEIR REGIONAL IMPACTS PART THREE: ECONOMIC DIMENSIONS OF CHANGE Chapter 7: TRADE LIBERALIZATION, ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION AND INTEGRATION Chapter 8: GEOGRAPHIES OF ECONOMIC TRANSFORMATION Chapter 9: THE TRANSNATIONAL CORPORATION AND EMERGING MARKET COUNTRIES Chapter 10: GEOGRAPHIES OF TRANSNATIONAL CORPORATIONS IN EMERGING MARKET COUNTRIES Chapter 11: NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND THE GROWTH OF SERVICES PART FOUR: POLITICAL DIMENSIONS OF CHANGE Chapter 12: MODERNITY AND NATIONALITY Chapter 13: MODERNITY AND DEMOCRACY Chapter 14: CONCLUSION: ALTERNATIVE CAPITALISMS AND GLOBALIZATION BIBLIOGRAPHY
