Description

This book, the product of a four-year project by a dozen researchers, provides a panorama of the jolting changes in Thailand's economy following the 1997 crisis. It examines the fate of major business groups, the changing role of family firms, the transformation of the automotive industry, the invasion of megastores, the saga of the mobile phone, the success stories of the Crown Property Bureau and Charoen liquor empire, the impact on business and local politics in the provinces, the exploits of Thai multinationals overseas, and the changing interplay between business capital and political power. The book also discusses the political consequences and policy implications of these changes, questioning the future of domestic capital in a globalized world economy.
