The rise of China is transforming the Asia-Pacific, as China?s economic and military might increasingly reverberates throughout the region. India and Indonesia are also rising Asian powers that are changing the shape of the Asian economic landscape. The rapid growth of emerging Asian consumer markets is becoming an increasingly important growth engine for the world economy and for global multinationals. However, Asia faces tremendous economic and social challenges over the long-term, including the rapid growth of Asian megacities and severe environmental problems due to climate change, water crises and pollution. Geopolitical tensions have also been escalating in the Asia-Pacific due to territorial disputes in the South China Sea and the East China Sea, increasing the risk of a regional arms race and military confrontation. Asian Megatrends is an essential read for government officials and corporate executives wishing to understand the rapidly changing risk landscape in Asia. 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aAsia?Economic conditions 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aInternational economics 606 $aPolitical economy 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aEconomic Policy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34010 606 $aAsian Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45010 606 $aDevelopment Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W42000 606 $aInternational Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W33000 606 $aInternational Political Economy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140 606 $aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W32000 607 $aAsia$xEconomic conditions$y21st century 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aAsia?Economic conditions. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aInternational economics. 615 0$aPolitical economy. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 14$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aAsian Economics. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aInternational Economics. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy. 615 24$aMacroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics. 676 $a330.95 700 $aBiswas$b Rajiv$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0998252 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254877603321 996 $aAsian Megatrends$92289707 997 $aUNINA
