The origins and the key defining moments of the Cold War in
Southeast Asia have been widely debated. This book focuses on an
area that has received less attention, the impact and legacy of the
Cold War on the various countries in the region, as well as on the
region itself. The book contributes to the historiography of the
Cold War in Southeast Asia by examining not only how the conflict
shaped the milieu in which national and regional change unfolded
but also how the context influenced the course and tenor of the
Cold War in the region. It goes on to look at the usefulness or
limitations of using the Cold War as an interpretative framework
for understanding change in Southeast Asia. Chapters discuss how
the Cold War had a varied but notable impact on the countries in
Southeast Asia, not only on the mainland countries belonging to
what the British Foreign Office called the "upper arc", but also on
those situated on its maritime "lower arc". The book is an
important contribution to the fields of Asian Studies and
International Relations.
