Summary/Abstract |
On Tuesday 7 July 1936, a few weeks before the spectacular opening by Adolf Hitler of the Berlin Olympics, seven men sat around a large ornate table in a four-story building just opposite the entrance to Downing Street to discuss what was known of the growing military challenge that Germany posed for the British Empire. Six of the men were officers representing the intelligence staffs of the Royal Navy, Army, and Royal Air Force (RAF). The seventh was a shadowy civilian whose background was in an organization that had then no official existence, the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). The building in which the meeting was taking place, No. 2 Whitehall Gardens, had previously made history when an earlier occupant, Benjamin Disraeli, had held meetings of his Cabinet there.

Summary/Abstract |
Since the 1990s, East Asia—including Northeast and Southeast Asia—has led the world in adopting a task-by-task international division of labour or international production networks (IPNs), the core of which consists of machinery industries. In this regard, how far has India integrated with East Asia? Using international trade data for comparison from multiple perspectives, this article gives an overview of the current position of India with respect to machinery IPNs and information and communication technology (ICT) services. The article shows that India has not yet participated in machinery IPNs in the East Asian region. We argue that ICT services are a source of strength for the Indian economy, and its competitiveness could be utilized effectively by combining new technologies with traditional industries such as manufacturing. India still has huge untapped opportunities for utilizing the mechanics of a new international division of labour to accelerate economic growth, innovation and poverty alleviation. And economic integration with East Asia could work as a trigger to redirect India’s industrialization strategies.
