| Editorial Reviews:
Product Description This book examines the recent rapid economic expansion in Thailand, and in Southeast Asia more generally. In a highly original argument, Unger considers the unique organization of Thai society, and the impact this has had on the country's institutions, and their political and economic outcomes. Unger takes an interdisciplinary approach, building on the literatures of social capital and embedded autonomy. The book's general, comparative discussion of social infrastructure is supplemented by case studies of specific sectors.

  Clear and Useful October 29, 2000 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I had the chance to study in Professor's Unger class at Georgetown University. This book that I read after leaving Georgetown University encompasses all the details related to this very specific subject which makes its reading useful and makes the book worth keeping. Clarity and exhaustiveness are the main qualities of this outstanding book.
