Abstract
As Northern elites acquired greater potential to transnationalize their establishments, Southern elites, having built the foundations for their own national establishments during the import-substitution phase of development, faced growing internal and external pressure to open their economies to the North. The pressures effectively transformed Asian national establishments into segments of a new Global Establishment.
The Pacific is ... the unsung success story of US foreign policy.... We probably have more cohesion and convergence of views with our friends ... in that part of the world than we’ve had at any time in the postwar period.
Admiral William Crowe, Commander in Chief of US Forces in the Pacific. (Bello et al. 1979:2)
