Change and Restructuring in the Asia Pacific:
Issue 1, Concerns of Local Stakeholders

and The Australian National University, Canberra, Australia

This cross-disciplinary special issue draws on varied levels of analysis to explore organizational strategies of change, and responses to new and diverse pressures, in the rapidly growing Asia Pacific region. The changes in the Asia Pacific have realigned coalitions and redistributed benefits and costs among stakeholders. Most recently, the steep devaluations of local currencies vis-à-vis the US dollar have whetted Western investors' interests in regional acquisitions. Yet, old concerns of management, and mismanagement, remain. Articles in the first part of this double issue emphasize interpretation of phenomena, or of results, and their implications for investors' strategies in the Asia Pacific. The articles also discuss the effects of some of the large-scale changes in the Asia Pacific on organizational stakeholders; all propose implications for successful and effective organizational strategies in the Asia Pacific and suggestions for future research on the region. Abstracts of articles, along with authors' bios, editorial and a full-text article may be accessed here. Abstracts of articles for the sequel issue on "Concerns of Local Stakeholders" may be accessed here. Dr. Usha C. V. Haley also serves as Regional Editor, Asia Pacific for the Journal of Organizational Change Management.
