This interdisciplinary volume sheds much needed light on the relationship between national policies, regional integration patterns and the wider global setting. It covers regional patterns in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Individual chapters focus on topics ranging from industrial or financial policies to social welfare regimes, as well as broader assessments and comparisons of regional arrangements in a global context. The chapters point to the diversity of regional patterns in the world economy and the continuing importance of national regulatory structures, yet they also point to the common pressures of globalization felt by all, especially in the domain of capital markets. With broad coverage and clear but sophisticated analysis this book will be vital reading to all those seeking to clarify their understanding of the contemporary regional/global paradox. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Regionalism and Global Economic Integration: Europe, Asia and the Americas (William D. Coleman, Geoffrey D. Underhill)
