The volume highlights the evolution and significance of services in the global economy, including as a vehicle for development. It discusses the major pillars that hold the services infrastructure together, namely, its governance and financing mechanisms. Other chapters adopt more specific geographical or sectoral perspectives, including a regional study of the impact of services in economic integration in ASEAN; a country-level analysis of the role of services in economic and social upgrading in India; a look at industry-specific dynamics through the business process outsourcing model; and finally, a value chain view to understand how services are impacted on a granular or micro level by policies. aservice industries government policy vService Industries economic aspects zGlobalization economic aspects  aElms, Deborah K. aHassani, Arian  aLow, Patrick  2ddccBK 00104070aNASSDOCbNASSDOCd2019-03-25eOPi2019-03-26l0o338.4 INT-p50243r2019-08-29 00:00:00w2019-03-26yBK
