Özet

© 2018, © 2018 Taylor & Francis.This current study of 12 countries in the East and Southeast Asian region aims to provide a framework of analysis built upon a wild-geese-flying (WGF) pattern of development in order to evaluate the potential for a region-wide development scheme by looking at the implications of trade flows over the last two decades. The empirical methodology involves searching for WGF consistent shifts in the trade structure of countries considered over the period of 1995 to 2014. We also investigate China’s changing role within the region’s division of labor and implications of this for the slower-growing nations in the region.
