There are important changes in regional and global demographics
ahead of us. A profound rise in the number of citizens in the
Indian Ocean Region in the next fifty years will have significant
impacts on the state, on the nature and operation of markets and
the neo-liberal framework they operate in, and raise new challenges
for regional security. This book considers the insufficient
dialogue between ever increasing and closer connections between
geo-economics and geo-securities in the Indian Ocean Region, and
highlights some of the challenges. This book takes a broader
understanding of security than what is usually meant in more
traditional security frameworks in politics and international
relations. Economic and politics are integrally, and obviously,
related. This book considers regional themes such as discourses
around strategic competition; models of regional cooperative
security; Indian Ocean Region domestic economies/ contexts and the
military industrial complex; and regional models of identity and
cultural belonging. Regions and regionalisms are increasingly being
used to challenge power, and the existence of any uniform model of
macro-politics and macro-economics (whether it be neo-liberalism or
otherwise). Most importantly, these discussions of region enable us
to celebrate the similarities that we share as neighbours (in a
real geographical sense) and to comprehend and respect these
differences in these rich regional communities of markets,
cultures, and securities. This book was previously published as a
special issue of the Journal of the Indian Ocean Region.
