    Choose and Focus

    Japanese Business Strategies for the 21st Century

    ULRIKE SCHAEDE

    Choose and Focusprovides a sound review of Japanese postwar

    development and is a good background for Japans development over

    the last decade. This is a well-written and very interesting book, and

    we would definitely agree with Schaede that parts of the New Japan

    are emerging, and the choose and focus strategy is one of the most

    critical for Japanese corporations in the twenty-first century.

    Winner of the International Convention ofAsia Scholars Book Prize in Social Sciences

    In this book, Economy concludes that Chinas environment

    has paid a terrible price as the country has turned from a nation

    in poverty to an economic power. It is possible, but by no means

    certain, she says, that it will be able to repair the damage or even to

    slow the degradation.THECHRONICLEREVIEW2010 36 0 pp. Paper $19.95 $15.96 ISBN 978-0-8014-7613-6

    This study by a political anthropologist attuned to the voices of

    Banharns rural constituents challenges all facile put-downs of Thai

    provincial voters as duped country bumpkins and charts a new direc-

    tion for Thai political analysis.

    New Approaches

    EDITEDBY WYNN WILCOX

    The rich interdisciplinary essays that make up this important volume

    fundamentally rethink the place of the West as an imagined and real

    presence in the Vietnamese past and present. Their expansive chron-

    ological and topical range reveals the complex processes through

    which myriad translocal vernaculars have emerged in Vietnam overthe last five hundred years. A splendid achievement.

    Culures a War

    The Cold War and Cultural Expression in Southeast Asia

    EDITEDBY TONY DAYAND MAYA H. T. LIEMThese innovative essays compel us to reevaluate our understanding

    of the Cold War as a predominantly political and military event. Their

    consideration of a broad range of cultural forms remind us that the

    Cold Wars influence on culture and i ts producers was as varied and

    complex as the Southeast Asian countries it touched.

    The Ambiguous Allure of the Westfinally and decisively pulls Thai

    studies away from its long-dominant introspection and its focus on an

    alleged Thai exceptionalism and sites it firmly in mainstream compara-tive and theoretical contexts. Strikingly original in conception and

    sure-footed in execution, this is an outstanding collection of essays.

    JOURNAL KYAW MA MA LAY

    TRANSLATEDBY MA THANEGI

    independent of Britain in the late 1930s and the Japanese Occupa-
