Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nations of the Pacific Basin - in East and Southeast Asia, Australasia, the Pacific islands and the Americas - make up the world's largest economic zone, and its most culturally diverse region. In recent years its Asian 'Tiger Economies' have suffered economic collapse and unfinished business from the Cold War has produced continuing conflict and instability. The new edition of this pioneering book traces the postwar inter-relationships of all the rim and island nations. It gives a unique impression of the make-up of the region, and the tensions within it. The book integrates a wide range of information from books and articles; from published and unpublished sources, including recently opened Russian and American archives; and from the first-hand experiences of participants, including those of the author, in Pacific Basin affairs. Vigorously written and strongly argued, no other account brings together all the threads of the development of international relations in this complex and fascinating region.

Download or read book The Pacific Basin written by Shane J. Barter and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pacific Basin: An Introduction is a new textbook which provides an interdisciplinary and comparative overview of the emerging Pacific world. Interest in the Pacific Basin has increased markedly in recent years, driven largely by the rise of China as a global rival to the United States and Asian development more generally. Growth in eastern Asia, as well as in the western Americas, has led the Pacific Basin to evolve as a dynamic economic zone. To make sense of this transformation, the book: Defines the Pacific Basin, locates it in academic research, and explains its importance. Addressees the historical origins and evolution of the Pacific Basin and its sub-regions. Introduces students to the historical and contemporary relationships, continuities and differences that characterize the region. Incorporates analyses of colonialism and imperialism, migration and settlement, economic development and trade, international relations, war and memory, environmental policy, urbanization, mental and public health, gender, film, and literature. Connects the diverse peoples of this vast area, explores their common challenges and the diverse responses to these challenges, and provides a window into the lived humanity of the Pacific Basin. The Pacific Basin: An Introduction is a key textbook for undergraduate courses on the Pacific Basin, the Pacific Rim, International Studies, Geography, World History, and Globalization.
Download or read book Rethinking the Pacific written by Gerald Segal and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parts of the Pacific region are of increasing importance for international security and prosperity. But in this, the first study of the trends in the international relations of the region, Segal demonstrates that the pacific never has been, and gives no indication of becoming, a coherent region. In fact, the vital developments taking place in the region are best understood in the context of global trends. The study provides historical perspective to the idea of the Pacific, and then analyzes the fundamental trends in politics, ideology, culture, security, and economic affairs.

Download or read book Change Interdependence and Security in the Pacific Basin written by Dora Alves and published by University Press of the Pacific. This book was released on 2002-04-01 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These selected papers from National Defense University?s 1990 Pacific Symposium deal with events in a vast area stretching from Japan to New Zealand and from Southeast Asia to the South Pacific islands in a year of momentous change. The apt theme of "change, interdependence, and security" echoes throughout the papers. Two thoughtful considerations of long-term US policy in the region lead off the collection, arguing that the United States needs to maintain the course of its fundamental policy. Successive papers address major issues by country and subregion. For example, one study looks at future relations between China and the great powers after the Tiananmen incident. Other essays raise serious questions about US-Japan security and economic relations into the 21st century, and several specialists examine how the end of the Cold War has raised hopes for stability on the Korean Peninsula and throughout Northeast Asia. Shifting the focus to Southeast Asia, other papers discuss improved prospects for security after a Cambodian settlement, and the outlook for democracy in the Philippines. Rounding out the volume, several authors delve into the security situation in Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific islands, as well as US and Soviet strategic interests there. Study of the Pacific - problematical in normal times because of the area?s vastness and diversity - has been further complicated recently by events in Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union, and the Persian Gulf. This volume, like its parent symposium, provides a stable forum to continue assessing Pacific security despite increasingly unstable conditions elsewhere in the world. J. A. Baldwin Vice Admiral, U.S. Navy President, National Defense University

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fully revised fourth edition of Michael Yahuda's successful textbook brings the subject up-to-date, introducing students to the international politics of the Asia-Pacific region since 1945. As well as assessing the post-cold War uncertainties that challenged balance and power with the region, the book also examines the first two decades of the new millennium, which includes no let up on the 'war on terror', new political administrations in all the key player-states and increased cooperative security between some nations, polarised by volatile relationships between others. Analyzing politics in terms of global, regional and local trends, this new edition features: Discussion and evaluation of the Trump Presidency and its implications for the Asia-Pacific region Analysis of Japan’s more assertive foreign policy Examination of the continued Rise of China under Xi Jinping in terms of politics, security, economic dominance and territorial conflicts in the region Ongoing debates concerning the 'war on terror' and how this shifts, forms and reforms relationships Explanation of how America’s war’s in the greater Middle East and the financial crash of 2008 undermined the American led international order. This new fourth edition will continue to be a core text for students of Asian politics, international relations and Cold War history.
