This volume investigates the spatial and economic dynamics of the information technology industry across the Asia Pacific region within the framework of global innovation networks. Edited by Philip Cooke, Kevin O'Connor, and Glen Searle, the text compiles research from various economic geographers to analyze how national policies, local clusters, and global market shifts influence the development of ICT sectors. The authors argue that regional economic evolution is not uniform, but rather a product of specific institutional histories, state interventions, and the varying integration of local firms into global value chains.
