Summary

The security architecture of the Asia/Pacific region is in the process of a profound transformation, partly due to the end of the Cold War and partly due to the dynamic economic developments in East and Southeast Asia. On a positive side, there is the collapse of the Soviet threat, high rates of economic growth, moves towards democratization and a shift toward a more multilateral co-operation. In this study a dozen well-established and newer scholars provide fresh insights, empirical richness and a deep knowledge of Asian and Pacific affairs.
