Abstract: Abstract We have followed World Bank regionalization of developing countries into five groups: East Asia and Pacific (EAP), South Asia (SA), Middle East and North Africa (MENA), Sub Saharan Africa (SSA), and Latin America and Caribbean (LAC). We added the sixth group of Arab Gulf countries (GCC). The positioning of these development regions along the different poles of economic systems was displayed in Chapter 1, Figure 1.3; and it is recalled in this chapter in Figure 8.1. In this chapter we examine each of these regions, starting with the EAP and focusing on China, we move eastwards and take up the other regions.
