Summary: This authoritative volume evaluates post-Cold War approaches to security in the Asia Pacific.

They then introduce the new security agenda of economic and financial stability, the effects of environmental degradation, human rights and political stability, and the impact of transnational crime. Their wide-ranging and incisive discussions will be of interest to policymakers, scholars, and students alike.
