This book record achievements of the East Asian Institute (EAI), one of the top five think tanks in Asia under the leadership of Dr Goh Keng Swee, Professors Wang Gungwu, John Wong and Zheng Yongnian.

The hard work behind the nurturing of this institute is sometimes invisible, unwritten and under-appreciated but the contributions and results are clear and relevant to the scholarly world. The works of EAI's originating guardians as well as the future endeavours of its current directorship thus need to be chronicled for future generations of scholars to learn from this intellectual experience of managing an institution as complex as EAI.

The detailed historiography of EAI in this publication represents the multiple histories of EAI, China's developmental path since the initiation of market reforms as well as Singapore's collaborative interface with China's development.

Contents:

  • The Making of the East Asian Institute (Lim Tai Wei)
  • Goh Keng Swee and Contemporary China Studies in Singapore (John Wong)
  • Singapore's Road to "China Watching" (John Wong)

Readership: Professionals, policy-makers and general readers interested in the development of China Studies in Singapore and the history of the East Asian Institute.
