Covering East, South, Southeast and Central Asia, this Handbook brings together the work of leading international academics to cover the political histories, institutions, economies and cultures of the region.

As an invaluable and all-inclusive resource, this handbook will be useful for students, scholars, researchers and practitioners of Asian politics and comparative politics.
