With particular focus on the Asia-Pacific region, this book
examines the rise and fall of sea powers. In the Asia-Pacific
region there has been significant expansion of sea-based economies
together with burgeoning naval power. Many claim that these
processes will transform the world's future economic and security
relationships. The book addresses the question of to what extent
the notion of 'Asia rising' is reflected by and dependent on its
developing sea power. A central theme is the Chinese challenge to
long-term Western maritime ascendency and what might be the
consequences of this. In order to situate current and future
developments this book includes chapters which analyse what sea
power means and has meant, as well as its role, both historic and
contemporary, in the rise and fall of great powers. This book will
be of much interest to students of naval power, Asian politics,
strategic studies, war and conflict studies, IR and security
studies.
