This book describes changing industrial dynamics of automobile and electronics industry after the Asian currency crisis in 1997. This contributes to the policy guidelines as well as corporate strategy for internationalization. International collaboration is organized among scholars from Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, China, Thailand, Malaysia, France and the United States. Field surveys on the two industries provide rich information and basic understandings on the issues. Japanese Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has been playing a leading role in the Asian economies for more than two decades. Even though the myth of the "East Asian Miracle" was severely hit by the 1997 Asian Economic Crisis, Japanese Multinational Corporations (MNCs) have achieved organizational evolutions in their market places
While Korean automobile manufacturers have experienced global restructuring, Chinese automobile industry have successfully transferred its production technology from Japan via Taiwan. Electronics production has its production site in Malaysia and its backward integration is observed in Singapore whilst its forward integration is done in Hong Kong. Globalization in the early twenty first century is envisaged in this book through international collaboration in East Asian and the Western countries
