 Whether America will continue to play a similar role is unclear. Trade imbalances are less tolerated than they once were. Tensions over intellectual property theft are likely to discourage American manufacturers from revealing and licensing technological innovation. Within Asia, friction is growing over self-interested nationalist policies that pit one country's manufacturing sector against another. These tensions are likely to grow over time. Surmounting them will require a miracle. But as Mr Schuman's book makes clear, that is surely no reason to be discouraged. “The Miracle,” to be released on June 30, is the story of these Asian Gatsbys and many more. No, they are not all saints. Some of them arguably allowed sweatshops to flourish. Others suppressed ideological foes. But, Mr. Schuman writes, “they all shared common goals: to elevate their people from poverty, to build thriving economies on war-torn landscapes, to forge new nations from disaggregated colonies, to hoist Asia into its proper place in the world.” Mr. Schuman makes it hard for the readers not to root for most of these remarkable individuals.
"If you are interested in how Asia became an economic tiger, read The Miracle." --New York Times An international bestseller, The Miracle by business journalist Michael Schuman offers a fascinating exploration of the most meaningful and far-reaching global event since World War II: the economic ascent of the Asian continent. CNN's Wolf Blitzer calls The Miracle, "An amazing story and it's all true," while the New York Times praises Schuman for being, "not just a skilled reporter [but] also a gifted journalistic storyteller." The Miracle is essential reading for anyone who truly wants to understand today's--and tomorrow's--world. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

A good read for those who want to turn the history page by page and in the process understand the Asian Model that clicked. In the end I found it to be a bit more of a Capitalist view of the Asian Model. A very good read though. (
