It is a common knowledge that education, science and innovations represent a driving force of economic development and indispensable for building a knowledge-based economy. The analysis presented in this article adds to a better understanding of knowledge-based economy development in Greater Eastern Asia. The article presents the research literature and science metrics analysis on science and education development in Asia dividing it into four clusters. International organizations (e.g., the UN and OECD) and transnational ranking agencies (like QS) judging by the quantitative indicators point out that Greater Eastern Asia (Northeast Asia, Southeast Asia and India) has become one of the world leaders in terms of higher education development and innovations. In high technologies, the region is second only to the USA and is constantly bridging this gap. Greater Middle East (the Middle East and Central Asia) looks differently in this respect. Arab countries’ opportunities to build knowledge-based economy are very limited as well as those of Central Asia. In terms of quality of science and education Greater Eastern Asia (with the exception of the most advanced countries of the region) is still lagging behind the West and in terms of fundamental science this gap looks very serious. However, there are efforts in place to make the rise of science and education in Asia more quality-oriented, for instance focusing more on strengthening engineering and hard science in the Asian universities.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В статье содержится историографический обзор оценок развития высшего образования и науки в Азии, которая, по-видимому, уже превратилась в ключевой экономический район в мире. Особую актуальность исследованию придает господствующий в последнее время тезис, что базовым фактором качественного экономического развития является уровень образования, науки и инноваций, что абсолютно необходимо для создания «экономики, основанной на знаниях». Анализ, представленный в статье, вносит вклад в более корректное понимание процессов развития такой экономики в Азии. В работе дается анализ научной литературы по проблематике развития образования и науки в Азии, которая делится на четыре кластера. Международные организации (например, ООН и ОЭСР) и транснациональные рейтинговые структуры (в частности, QS), основываясь на количественных показателях, отмечают, что Большая Восточная Азия (Северо-Восточная и Юго-Восточная Азия, Индия) стала одним из мировых лидеров с точки зрения уровня высшего образования и инноваций. Так, в сфере высоких технологий мегарегион по существу отстает только от Соединенных Штатов, причем отставание постоянно сокращается. Иная картина наблюдается на Большом Ближнем Востоке (Ближний и Средний Восток, Центральная Азия). Можно предположить, что возможности арабских стран построить «экономику, основанную на знаниях», весьма незначительны, а возможности государств Центральной Азии и Среднего Востока - ненамного лучше. С точки зрения качественного уровня, Большая Восточная Азия еще уступает Западу (за исключением отдельных самых передовых держав), а в сфере фундаментальной науки - очень серьезно. Вместе с тем проходит процесс и постоянного качественного роста. Особое внимание обращается на то, что азиатские университеты в последнее время прежде всего делают акцент на укреплении преподавания инженерных и точных дисциплин.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>higher education</kwd><kwd>science</kwd><kwd>international organizations</kwd><kwd>transnational rating structures</kwd><kwd>Greater Eastern Asia</kwd><kwd>Greater Middle East</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>высшее образование</kwd><kwd>наука</kwd><kwd>международные организации</kwd><kwd>транснациональные рейтинговые структуры</kwd><kwd>Большая Восточная Азия</kwd><kwd>Большой Ближний Восток</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Amir, S.
