Building Social Capital in Thailand: Fibers, Finance and Infrastructure (Cambridge Asia-Pacific Studies)
By Danny Unger.
Description
This book examines the recent rapid economic expansion in Thailand, and in Southeast Asia more generally. In a highly original argument, Unger considers the unique organization of Thai society, and the impact this has had on the country's institutions, and their political and economic outcomes. Unger takes an interdisciplinary approach, building on the literatures of social capital and embedded autonomy. The book's general, comparative discussion of social infrastructure is supplemented by case studies of specific sectors. - from Amzon
