    Tendencias y asuntos económicos asiáticos emergentes
    (Universidad ESAN. ESAN Ediciones, 1997-12-30) Yamazawa, Ippei
    Despite the continued high growth of the economies of East and Southeast Asian countries, referred to as the "East Asian miracle", the growth of these economies slowed down in 1996 compared to the previous two years. In view of this, it is suggested that high growth in the region will return in the medium or long term if five conditions are met: (i) structural changes in Asian production and trade, which will generate high productivity growth; (ii) economic opening policies, which include not only greater access to technology and foreign capital, but also increased competitiveness and efficiency; (iii) joint liberalization efforts, which will contribute to the rapid industrialization of the countries in the region by providing capital, technology and export markets; (iv) stabilization of the monetary system, so that exchange rates adjust flexibly and a stable flow of funds is maintained; and (v) resolution of environmental pollution and unstable and insufficient energy and food supplies, which create bottlenecks and impede continued high growth.

    El "Cercano Oeste" de los Estados Unidos: las economías dinámicas de Asia del Este
    (Universidad ESAN. ESAN Ediciones, 1997-12-30) Drobnick, Richard
    It examines the process of opening up Asian markets to US participation, which occurred as a result of technological, ideological and individual changes. These changes contribute to regional economic integration, reason for which US companies doing business in Asia should develop regional strategies and not view Asian countries as completely separate markets. Five factors are pointed out that explain the growth of exports of US companies to East Asia: increasing competitiveness in prices, increasing competitiveness in the quality of goodness, increasing openness of Asian markets, corporate commitments to international business opportunities, and continued high economic growth in Asian markets. It is concluded that US organizations should learn about the cultural and institutional characteristics of Asian markets in order to be able to interact more effectively with Asian partners and competitors.
