In the last few decades, the number of FTAs has been rapidly increasing in the world, especially in Asia. In particular, East Asian countries are expected to be main engines for sustaining the world economy. Focusing on East Asian economies, strategic behaviors of governments and firms in order to attain their own aims are examined. The analytical methods employed in this book are those currently being developed or that recently have been created. The topics are important contemporary issues in regional areas facing the rapid economic changes brought about by globalization. Most chapters of this book are based on original work that was published in international journals but now has been completely rewritten, with restructuring and extension of the original work. This book, with its up-to-date information, will be of interest to academic researchers in universities and economic research institutions and to students working on advanced degrees in economics. 410 0$aNew Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives,$x2199-5974 ;$v10 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aBusiness 606 $aCommerce 606 $aEconomics 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 606 $aTrade$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/527010 606 $aEconomic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W29000 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aBusiness. 615 0$aCommerce. 615 0$aEconomics. 615 14$aRegional/Spatial Science. 615 24$aTrade. 615 24$aEconomic Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods. 676 $a382.9101 702 $aOhkawa$b Takao$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aTawada$b Makoto$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aOkamura$b Makoto$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aNomura$b Ryoichi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910135972803321 996 $aRegional Free Trade Areas and Strategic Trade Policies$92295534 997 $aUNINA
