By then, Asia's share of global GDP would have doubled and it would have regained the dominant economic position it once held some 300 years ago before the industrial revolution. What is less well-known is that during the previous eras of globalization, Asia was also regionally integrated and globally connected. During the 19th and the first half of the 20th centuries, Asia was divided and fragmented. 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aEconomics$zSouth Asia 606 $aEconomics$zEast Asia 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 0$aEconomics 615 0$aEconomics 676 $a337.5405 701 $aRana$b Pradumna Bickram$0530724 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451635903321 996 $aRenaissance of Asia$92265901 997 $aUNINA
