Despite significant cultural exchange, mutual trust and understanding remains fragile between Asia-Pacific countries. The community faces complex and seemingly intractable problems: violent civil conflicts, geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties, proliferation of nuclear weapons and flashpoints that may lead to war. The authors of this book argue that common reflection and dialogue is imperative. Their achieved aim is to bring together distinguished scholars and experts on public policy, social ethics, defence, human security and sustainability to consider the future of the Asia-Pacific region and appropriate responses by both states and civil society.
Industry Reviews
'Geopolitical contestation in the Asia-Pacific will be one of the defining features of the wider international order in the twenty-first century. This well-conceived volume brings together a team of leading scholars from around the region to help us understand why and what it may mean. It could hardly be more timely or useful.' -- Mark Beeson, University of York, UK
'. . . a very timely and valuable set of essays by expert contributors
'Are Japan and Australia part of Asia? Can middle powers and/or the United Nations play a constructive role independent of the dominance of a hegemonic power? The authors of this stimulating collection on the geopolitics of the Asia-Pacific astutely weigh the possibilities for the emergence of an Asian community as an alternative to dependence by middle powers and the UN on the United States in a period of hegemonic decline in the wake of 9/11.' -- Mark Selden, Cornell University, US
