Summary

East Asia has led rapid economic growth in the last few decades with India joining them over the last five years. Export-oriented electronics and inward-oriented automotive parts manufacturers have spearheaded manufacturing growth in all these economies. Experts with several years of multi-disciplinary research experience on the field examine the actual and potential technological and localization implications of MNC operations in East Asia and India. The rich collection of country experiences are both original and incisive.
