29 Νοε 2018 · It has been a pleasure to be reacquainted with the economic history of Thailand. In summary, I recommend the book to those interested in the evolution of the Thai economy and the parallel political and social change.
A regional economic history of Thailand is important for a broad picture of the economic changes in the country for a number of reasons. First, most existing studies focus to a large extent on Bangkok and the economic progress of this city and the central areas.
This book is the answer and it gives a clearer and more accurate picture of the Thai economy historically. Explanations and analyses in each chapter are extensive, insightful, and critical without going into too much detail.
The Thai economy was fueled by cheap labor and light industry such as computer manufacturing and assembly. There was no shortage of construction jobs. Thailand became a leading exporter of rice and Southeast Asia's largest producer of cars (from Japanese-owned plants).
summary This book presents an economic history of Bangkok, the Central Region, the North, the South, and Northeastern Regions from the signing of the Bowring Treaty in 1855 to the present. Most research has focused on Bangkok as the centre of change affecting other regions and has neglected other regions that had an influence on Bangkok.
A History of Thailand offers a lively and accessible account of Thailand’s political, economic, social and cultural history, from the early settlements in the Chao Phraya basin to today.
