"Carroll and Jarvis's edited volume provides a timely examination of the developmental policies and state-society relations in contemporary Asia, in particular by dealing with the impacts of neoliberalism. ... this book represents a valuable addition to the expanding literature on the dynamics of neoliberalism and its impact on state society relations in Asia." (Wei Li, Pacific Affairs, Vol. 89 (1), March, 2016) "The book is a useful and substantial contribution to the debate on the subject matter and is recommended for those with interests in political economy, human geography, politics of development and public policy, or for those with an area-specific interest, or perhaps a more specific interest in the debates on the role, form and function of states in economic development under late capitalism." (Karim Knio and Zuzana Novakova, Journal of Contemporary Asia, Vol. 46 (1), 2016)
