Subject: ‘Rise of the Asian Giants: The Dragon– Elephant Tango’ - New Book by Anthem Press Author: Anthem Press [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 07:51:58 12/11/08 Thu ‘Rise of the Asian Giants: The Dragon– Elephant Tango’ by By Tan Chung, edited by Paricia Uberoi ISBN: 9788190583596; List Price: £60.00 / $100.00. Available for sale at a discount on www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.com. While the rise of China has long been an accepted fact of international economic and political relations, the more recent rise of India as an economic power has provoked intense global interest. This book presents a Chinese assessment of how China and India see themselves each in relation to the other, focusing on their experiences of modernization and economic reform and their ramifications on each country’s role in global affairs. Eschewing the geo-political idiom of competition and rivalry between emerging Asian giants, the book seeks to understand the parallel, complementary, convergent and divergent development experiences from a more self-consciously geo-civilizational perspective, contextualizing developments in both the short-term framework of independent nationhood, against the more immediate background of nationalist and anti-imperialist struggles, and in the longue durée of shared, continental histories.
