Malaysia is one of the fastest growing economies in the world at the beginning of the 21st century. This book reflects the current debates about the future directions of the national economy, polity and society in light of the late 1900s watershed period of financial crisis, the arrest of Anwar Ibrahim and the subsequent 1999 general election. The aim of this work is to answer questions about how the economy and society are organized, about how the benefits from economic development are distributed, about government's relations to major national institutions, and about the nature of the political process. With its focus firmly on Malaysia's future, this volume should be of specific interest to scholars, academics, researchers, business leaders and policymakers involved in the Asian region, and Malaysia in particular.
