Thailand: the rise and fall of Asia's "new tiger"

Focusing on Thailand's economic evolution, this monograph by György Szymon Jr. analyzes the political, economic, and social factors influencing its rise as a Southeast Asian "tiger" and subsequent decline. Utilizing a comprehensive econometric approach spanning 70 years, the study employs a Caldorov-type model to explore technological progress and capital dynamics. It aims to reveal the underlying mechanisms affecting Thailand's growth trajectory and compares its efficiency to global standards, highlighting the factors that hindered its economic momentum.
