The World under Pressure: How China and India are Influencing the Global Economy and Environment

摘要

The dramatic emergence of China and India as major global players and the implications this carries for the international political and economic order have already been the subject of several important studies. Carl Dahlman's book is a useful addition to this burgeoning scholarship because it lucidly addresses a topic that has not received the scholarly scrutiny it deserves: how the rapid ascent of these two Asian giants is reshaping global economic and environmental systems, what this means for regional and global stability, governance and sustainability, and how the world can best accommodate the rise of these two massive economies.
