Abstract

The region of South-East Asia has received less attention than East Asia in the literature. Yet, it is important for several reasons. Not only does it possess huge markets for products (with over 400 million people in just the four countries we focus on here), but it also has rich sources of raw materials and goods in their own right. In addition, it has important ‘off-shoring’ sites for both Western and other Asian companies. In this collection of essays, we explore recent developments across a broad spectrum of economic systems, business enterprises and management behaviours in the region. Many diverse facets of these fields of study are covered. There are several interesting dichotomies presented; for example, between international/national; socialist/capitalist; public/private ownership; large/small firm size; and so on. The upshot is a set of illustrative studies which, if not strictly a ‘sample’, offer an insightful ‘perspective’ on where the cutting-edge of management research is heading, as well as seeing the region in a reasonably balanced context.
