Asia's New World Order

Nowhere is the historic global transformation creating a new international context more striking than in East and South Asia. Leading specialists here discuss key economic and political changes within the region, and the impact of the Asian economic miracle on global politics and international relations. Prospects for growth, democracy and security are investigated in depth as well as their implications for other powers in the post cold-war world.
