Publisher's Synopsis
This new edition of Asia Pacific in World Politics reflects the impact of nearly a decade of significant events and shifts in the region: the escalation of the conflicts between China and the US and China and Taiwan, the changing regional role of Japan, growing numbers of refugees, the Covid-19 pandemic, Indonesia's increasing prominence, and much more.
Updated throughout and designed to encourage students to engage with contemporary issues and debates, the book provides a historically grounded, accessible overview of Asia Pacific's dynamic role in the international arena.
