Whilst it is true that East Asia is undergoing huge economic growth, this article cautions against describing the phenomenon as a renaissance or drawing comparisons with the intellectual and ideological transformation that characterised the European Rennaissance of the 16th Century. The fault lines and imbalances within the region, together with the massive foreign investments and the export reliant nature of the economic growth suggest there are some potentially dangerous inherent instabilities.
