Emerging Markets and Industrialized Countries in the New Wave of Globalization

This book features a selection of papers presented at the Franco-Japanese Conference on Asian and International Economies in the era of globalization. In light of shifts in international economic relations, the globalization of labor markets, and the dynamics of migration, this book explores various aspects of the integration of Asian and other emerging economies into globalization. The contributions cover topics related to international trade, the international monetary system, strategic corporate behavior, and economic policy. Additionally, the book features contributions analyzing geopolitical aspects and China’s role in international trade. The contributions were the result of a collaboration between researchers from Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The researchers met monthly in a webinar, which was co-hosted by Yokohama University in Japan and Sciences Po Aix in France. The purpose of the webinar was to reflect on the challenges emerging economies are facing in the context of the new wave of globalization. The book is intended for students and researchers, as well as economists and policymakers, who will find it useful for their practical decision-making.
