Edited by Masahiro Kawai, Project Professor, Graduate School of Public Policy, the University of Tokyo, Peter J.

'The spectacular rise in Asian economies has reshuffled the
distribution of world economic power, while the Global Financial
Crisis brought it to the fore. The global economic and financial
architecture, inherited from World War II, has not responded to
such changes. Focusing mainly on financial and partly on trade
issues, this book provides a welcome perspective from seasoned Asia
experts on the prospective benefits of a new, more decentralized
and regionalized architecture. It will be a timely read, coinciding
with the launching of the BRICS Development Bank.'
--Eric Girardin, Aix-Marseille School of Economics, France; former
member of the Asian Development Bank Institute Advisory
Council'This edited volume makes a distinctive contribution to the
literature on financial crises.'
--Linda Low, Journal of Southeast Asian Economies
