From the war on terror to the rise of China, this book unlocks the
major strategic themes and security challenges of the early
twenty-first century. Strategy and Security in the Asia-Pacific
provides the analytical frameworks needed to make sense of this
complex but exciting strategic universe. Offering a unique mix of
global strategic thinking and Asia-Pacific security analysis, this
book is for readers from Sydney to Seoul who want to put their own
local security challenges in a wider regional and global context.
It is also for North American and European readers requiring an
understanding of the dynamic security developments in the
Asia-Pacific region around which so much of global strategy is
increasingly based. The really vital questions facing the
international community are dealt with here: Why do governments and
groups still use armed force? Has warfare really changed in the
information age? Why should we be concerned about non-traditional
security challenges such as water shortages and the spread of
infectious disease? Is a great clash imminent between the United
States and China? What are the prospects for peace on the Korean
peninsula and between India and Pakistan? Can Southeast Asia
survive the challenges of transnational terrorism? What does
security mean for the Pacific island countries and for Australia
and New Zealand? With contributions from leading commentators and
analysts, Strategy and Security in the Asia-Pacific offers a
comprehensive and authoritative introduction to the field.
