This book tackles two key questions stemming from the uneven development of Asian economies: how to implement policies that lift people out of poverty and enhance their quality of life, and how to ensure that economic growth is sustainable, broad-based, inclusive, and environmentally conscious. It aims to provide a cohesive perspective on regional growth and sustainable development in Asia by focusing on these questions. Emphasizing dynamic modeling, the book illustrates the significance of robust theoretical and empirical modeling in addressing critical public policy issues related to regional growth and sustainability. Topics covered include growth accounting, natural resource management, regulation of environmental externalities, geographic information systems, and regional climate change. Each chapter is authored by international experts actively engaged in research within their fields. This makes the book a valuable resource for readers seeking a comprehensive and current understanding of the pressing issues at the intersection of regional growth and sustainable development in Asia.
