The regions of Asia and Oceania, with their many diverse peoples,
massive size, and vast cultural history, have birthed some of the
most critical conflicts of the modern era. From border disputes to
current nuclear threats to regions still shattered by the effects
of past wars, this volatile region is a key player on the world
stage of global conflict. This exciting volume provides up-to-the
minute coverage of the most critical situations and explosive
events in the region, including internal strife in Indonesia,
insurgency in southern Thailand, nuclear issues in India and
Pakistan, the Tibetan revolt, the Spratly Islands dispute, and
terrorist organizations such as Abu Sayeff. The conflicts are
explored against the backdrop of major conflicts like the Vietnam
War, the Korean War, and the Cold War. Maps, a timeline, an index,
and an annotated bibliography supplement the chapters for a greater
understanding of the material. With ties to several curricular
areas, including Asian studies, political science, global studies,
military history, international relations, regional history and
politics, this is an essential source for students of world history
and global conflict. Maps, a timeline, an index, and an annotated
