This book brings together respected experts to assess both the theoretical and empirical dimensions of the Asian security debate. Building on the latest research on Asia's regional security politics, it focuses on the 'regional-global nexus' as a way to understand the dynamics of Asian security politics and its intersection with global security. Contributors to the volume offer diverse but complementary perspectives on which issues and factors are most important in explaining how security politics in Asia can be interpreted at both the regional and global levels of analysis. Issues addressed include power balancing and alliances, governance and democracy, maritime and energy security, the relationship between economics and security, 'human security', terrorism, nuclear non-proliferation, climate change and pandemics. This work will serve as a standard reference on the evolution of key issues in Asian security. 606 $aSecurity, International$zAsia 606 $aSecurity, International$zPacific Area 606 $aNational security$zAsia 606 $aNational security$zPacific Area 607 $aAsia$xPolitics and government$y21st century 607 $aPacific Area$xPolitics and government$y21st century 607 $aAsia$xMilitary policy 607 $aPacific Area$xMilitary policy 615 0$aSecurity, International 615 0$aSecurity, International 615 0$aNational security 615 0$aNational security 676 $a355/.03305 701 $aTow$b William T$0564695 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778405603321 996 $aSecurity politics in the Asia-Pacific$93688299 997 $aUNINA
