Ing, Lili Yan, Richardson, Martin, and Urata, Shujiro, eds. 2019. East Asian Integration: Goods, Services, and Investment. London: Routledge.
This book provides a thorough analysis of economic integration in East Asia, focusing on the interconnectedness of goods, services, and investment. It examines the progress made under various regional agreements and the obstacles that remain to achieving a truly integrated regional economy. The authors highlight the growing importance of the services sector and the need for standardized investment protocols to encourage cross-border capital flows. The research emphasizes that for East Asia to remain a global economic engine, it must deepen its internal cooperation and harmonize its trade policies. It serves as an authoritative guide for understanding the dynamics of regionalism in one of the most economically vibrant areas of the world today.
