Arguing for a strategy that promises to achieve greater regional stability, this overview of security relations in the Asia-Pacific finds that current approaches by policy-makers increase the likelihood of conflict. Instead, it proposes that a strategy of "convergent security" be adopted to build an enduring regional security framework. As a concise survey of key approaches to international relations, the volume considers relevant historical and contemporary empirical issues as well. The authoritative and broad-ranging survey is designed for a wide range of analysts and students of Asian politics and strategy.
