Globalization and national autonomy : The experience of Malaysia

---

Malaysia has long had an ambivalent relationship to globalization. A shining example of export-led growth and the positive role for foreign investment, the country's political leadership has also expressed skepticism about the prevailing international political and economic order. In this compelling collection, Nelson, Meerman and Rahman Embong bring together a group of Malaysian and foreign scholars to dissect the effects of globalization on Malaysian development over the long-run. They consider the full spectrum of issues from economic and social policy to new challenges from transnational Islam, and are unafraid of voicing skepticism where the effects of globalization are overblown. Malaysia is surprisingly understudied in comparative context; this volume remedies that, and provides an overview of a country undergoing important political change.
Contents:
1. Introduction
2. Developmentalist state in Malaysia
3. The look east policy, the asian crisis, and state autonomy
4. The Malaysian success story, the public sector and inter-ethnic inequality, etc.
