Summaries of eight papers that analyse the major economic problems and challenges concerning trade, investment and technology transfer faced by ASEAN countries specifically in their interactions with the United States and vice versa

Nine papers presented at a symposium held on 6-8 July 1989 in Singapore.

The economies of the six countries of ASEAN are small in comparison to that of the United States; together the ASEAN GDP is about 5 per cent of the US GDP. However, their rapid growth in the 1970s and early 1980s, and outward orientation make them more important than their sall size would indicate. This book covers topics such as trade in goods and services, intellectual property rights, investment, US ansd ASEAN economic outlook and recommendations for framework agreement.

This book explores the primary issues and organising principles that define the United States-Third World relations in the New World Order. This book consists of six sections. The first section includes three essays on the political economy of the United States-Third World relations and American political, economic, and military involvement in the developing countries. In section two, there are two chapters that address the political and cultural challenges facing the United States-Latin American relations in the post-Cold War era, followed by a regional and a country study. Section three devoted to the United States-Asia relations in the New World Order consists of two general essays and three case studies. In section four, we find a chapter that will focus on the relationship between the United States and the Middle East, an essay on economic development, and two case studies. Section five consists of one general essay on the economic decline of countries in Sub-Saharan Africa in the post-Cold War era followed by a case study of structural adjustments in an African country. The final section of the book is comprised of four chapters on the political economy of development in the New World Order.
