Abstract
This paper examines the development of the newly industrialising countries of Asia with a focus on their second­tiger group, Malaysia  and Thailand, after the 1997­98 and 2008­09 crises, taking into account the Latin American, mainly Brazilian, experience. The so­called countries of Southeast Asia have now found themselves in a situation of a “modernization trap”. That entails  the risk to be faced with an “the empty box” of economic growth without development.
