Kohli, Ashok Sharma, Anil Sood. New Delhi : SAGE, 2011. 1 online resource (xxvii, 381 p.) : col. ill. If Asia continues to grow on its recent trajectory, it could, by 2050, account for more than half of global GDP, trade and investment, and enjoy widespread affluence. Its per capita income could rise sixfold. It thus holds the promise of making some 4 billion Asians, hitherto commonly associated with poverty and deprivation, affluent by today's standards. This study is aimed at key opinion makers to foster debate on a vision of and strategy for Asia's potentially historic rise among the global community of nations between now and 2050, and offers a long-term perspective of the Asia region as a whole.
