ISBN: 9789383649723 / Angielski / Twarda / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Similarly, Asia does not adhere to a particular notion of an ideal state. The "Asian Century" was essentially formulated on the basis of developments in certain parts of Asia-the remarkable economic growth in East and South East Asia; the emerging significance of China and India in global...
