" H" V% G' E! V: O+ uWith the rapidly changing landscape of the global economy as the backdrop to a more challenging and unpredictable world, it is imperative to look at cooperative and competitive antecedents for future East-West relationships and the internal economic, social and political evolution of both markets. For example, following China’s 2001 accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO), the country has quickly risen to become the world’s third largest trading economy (with total trade exceeding US$1.1 trillion). China will soon replace Canada as the United States’ largest trading partner. The rise of Eastern countries, most notably China and India, and the displacement of industry in the West raises the basic question: Is the East a competitive or cooperative partner in trade, investment and business relations? 0 j!

Optimists, on the other hand, see complementary relations between the two regions. The reality is that the East is currently undergoing a major socio-political and economic transformation, providing both opportunities and challenges for regional stability, sustainable development, and international business. To further explore contrasting economic environments and business relations between the two regions, we seek submissions generally relating to:
