Summary

This publication examines recent developments in East Asian economies, including the meteoric rise of China, the economic crisis of the 1990's, and the rapid growth of cities, as well as considering future challenges and exploring how development strategies should be adapted in response. A key challenge now is to complement global and regional integration with domestic integration, requiring vibrant cities that are not only linked to the outside world but also well-integrated domestically, strengthening social cohesion and reducing inequality.
