{"product_id":"economic-development-parables-winai-wongsurawat-9781032491295","title":"Economic Development Parables: From Siam to Thailand","description":"\u003cp\u003eWongsurawat looks at the history of Thailand since the mid-nineteenth century and uses events to elucidate basic economic models and concepts. He selects defining moments in Thailand's history to convey key economic ideas worthy of classroom discussion.\u003c\/p\u003eWritten without excessive jargon, the chapters connect complex historical phenomena with broader, transportable economic concepts. The cases range from the signing of the Bowring Treaty in 1855, opening Siam to the forces of globalization, to the Asian Financial Crisis that wreaked havoc on the economy in 1997. Key economic terms are also explained. \u003cp\u003eReconnecting the increasingly distant fields of history and economics, this is an appealing text to researchers with an interest in Thailand's economic history, as well as undergraduates undergoing an introductory economics course or overseas program in Thailand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Winai Wongsurawat\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032491299\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032491295\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d","brand":"Winai Wongsurawat","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46094238286079,"sku":"9781032491295","price":66.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_571913f5-6079-40c3-a591-bcf645736ba7.jpg?v=1724844088","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/economic-development-parables-winai-wongsurawat-9781032491295","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
