<br/><br/> "East Asia Decentralizes is the first attempt to look systematically at the decentralization phenomenon that is occurring throughout East Asia. It assesses what has happened thus far, distills key messages, highlights positive experiences, and identifies areas where priority action is needed." "Although intended primarily for central and local government policy makers, East Asia Decentralizes will also be a useful resource for academics, businesspeople, and development practitioners concerned with the unfolding process of intergovernmental reform in the region."--Jacket
