Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book explores the varying reactions to the political turmoil in Asia in the late 1990's by looking at external pressures from global actors (the IMF and US security policy), popular protests, the nature of the opposition, and elite coalition formation/dissolution at the highest levels of government. |
