A Resilient Asia Amidst Global Financial Crisis: From Crisis Management to Global Leadership (Asian Development Bank Books) - Hardcover

The format of the book is unique in the sense that it does not rely solely on research paper...the book is different from many existing books in this area...it not only provides a specific discourse on the condition of emerging markets in Asia in the GFC [Global Financial Crisis] context but also provides flexibility in terms of format of the book for a reader to comprehend the issue fully.

The papers present concrete ways in which Asian economies and financial systems can be made more responsive and resilient. The book proposes that Asian economies can capitalize on the global economic crisis by using it as an opportunity to move from crisis management to gradually assuming global economic leadership. It spells out a general framework for strengthening recovery efforts, ensuring inclusive growth and open regionalism, rebalancing Asia's growth model, and creating greater regional cooperation for a prosperous and resilient Asia.

This is perhaps the first ever book in the market to undertake an in-depth discussion about the impact and the long-term implications of the global financial crisis on economies in Asia.
