This book addresses the urgent issue of nations being left behind in an era defined by AI, advanced manufacturing, and knowledge- intensive industries.
Through incisive analysis, the book examines industrialisation dynamics across Africa and Asia, using advanced econometric techniques like the ARIMA model to uncover the determinants of deindustrialisation. Key chapters include comparative case studies of leading manufacturing firms in China and India, highlighting their strategies for innovation and global competitiveness. The book also delves into the role of infrastructure, education, R&D, and industrial policy in fostering or hindering economic growth, offering a unique perspective on why some nations succeed while others stagnate.
The Economics of Left Behind Regions is essential reading for scholars, policymakers, investors, and development practitioners seeking to understand and address global inequality. It provides actionable insights and a blueprint for nations striving to rebuild their productive systems and achieve sustainable growth in an increasingly knowledge- driven world.
