The sociology of Chinese capitalism in Southeast Asia: challenges and prospects

Set within the context of ASEAN integration, this book considers how capitalism from China interacts with the ASEAN Economic Community, considering the issue from a variety of sociological, cultural and economic perspectives.

It examines some of the creative strategies - de-sinicisation, re-sinicisation and re-balancing - employed by local Chinese communities and ASEAN countries to cope with the pressures of Chinese capitalism.
