SynopsisEast Asia has long been the focus of development debates, first as a success story and now as a region in crisis. Nonetheless, there has been little if any serious discussion of what the region's experience tells us about capitalism and the prospects for non-capitalist development alternatives more centered on the needs of workers and communities. Development, Crisis and Class Struggle fills this gap., East Asia has long been the focus of development debates, first as a success story and now as a region in crisis.
