| Abstract: | Until the end of the eighties, East Asia had never been understood as an entity comprising countries with common economic targets and joint policy instruments. Individual achievement ruled over regional achievement. Reluctance towards and even resistance against any form of concerted actions were deeply rooted in Asian history and politics. Economic leadership defined as supplying international collective goods and widely accepted as a driving force of integrating regions in Europe and North America was denied to the economic forerunner, Japan for historical reasons. Political segmentation paralysed the traditional pre-war economic ties between socialist and market-oriented countries. |
