In recent years we have been witnessing a true avalanche of both domestic and foreign literature on the East Asian “miracle”, the countries of the Pacific belt and the modernization of the Asian economies. The world was shocked by yet another global stock market crash, which often marks the economic crisis. October and November 1997 has brought the world many dark days. Hong Kong and new York, London and Frankfurt, Tokyo and Moscow exchanges largest cities in the world, whatever language we speak their brokers, were filled with one desire: to sell. The main victims of the emerging markets. From there it began an intensive outflow of capital. What happened to the Asian tigers?
Consideration of this aspect of the development of the newly industrialized countries will allow to better understand the specificities of these economies, to show how Asia has been able for thirty years to go the way that Europe spent centuries. The face of Europe was changing gradually, year after year, and therefore there was no need for unnecessary violence, designed to accustom people to new ideas: on pack horses, we got on the cart, then came bezrassadnym crew for him – coach, railroad car, airplane, and even we seemed to progress too rapidly. What to Asia – she for thirty years, one generation, moved with pack donkeys to rolls-Royces. with breeding horses – on aircraft. Five hundred years it had taken us to fighting from the bow – a long, long time I was fighting with muskets – go for automatic weapons. Desert Marauder just before world war lost the spear and now goes on a RAID, a saddle slung over the machine gun “Maxim”. Four hundred years ago we invented the printing press and have come a long way of discipleship: printed from wooden boards to a set, fastened by screws, and there is a lever to press, steam press, electric press, as long as not reached the cheapness and speed of modern newspaper printing. In Asia mass printing came already assembled. If why it developed so quickly and well, there was the economic downturn? As the Asian tigers overcame the crisis, and what were the foreign policy implications?
In this paper I aim to answer these questions, and attempt to understand what the new industrial countries. To know where you came from and what happened to them?
To reach a goal you need to understand the socio – economic causes that affect the development of the newly industrialized countries of Southeast Asia. It is possible to allocate three reasons for development:
1. External dependencies of rapid economic growth.
2. High share of savings.
3. The narrowness of the domestic market.
Gradually considering these reasons, we expect to receive as a result answers questions and implementation goals of this work.

Politically, Asian countries represent a complex set of democratic and authoritarian regimes.
