Focusing on multi-dimensional interactions (including geo-political and economic relationships, diaspora engagement, and knowledge exchange) between China and Southeast Asia, this book argues that an interwoven perspective of the political economy, transnational governance, and regional networks serves as an effective analytical framework to deciphering these transformations as well as their global and theoretical implications. Drawing upon a wide range of primary data and engaging with latest interdisciplinary scholarship on contemporary Asia, this book's thought-provoking and nuanced analyses will appeal to scholars and students in Chinese and Southeast Asian studies, international political economy, international relationship, and public governance"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Hong Liu is Tan Lark Sye Chair Professor of Public Policy and Global Affairs at the School of Social Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, where he also serves as Director of the Nanyang Centre for Public Administration Print version record Subject Economics -- Political aspects -- China -- History -- 21st century Economics -- Political aspects -- Southeast Asia -- History -- 21st century POLITICAL SCIENCE -- Economic Conditions.
