Reviews for International Relations of Asia

An astute, impressive, masterful capture of the complex geopolitical dynamic that defines Asia today, this is a study distinguished by the in-depth, compelling analysis of seasoned strategic experts. The Indo-Pacific today is the cockpit of intensifying major power rivalry, competing nationalisms and growing militarization--all of which suggest a growing uncertainty about the future of the region. These and a variety of other issues that affect the region, including the key challenge of counterbalancing China, are examined thoroughly and incisively in this study which should benefit university students and policy planners alike.--Nirupama Rao, former Foreign Secretary of India and Ambassador of India to China and the United States David Shambaugh's third edition of his influential The International Relations of Asia offers a way to think comprehensively about the complex web of diplomatic, economic, and security relations in this century of Asia. Cutting through that complexity to explain the international relations of the world's largest and most dynamic region is no mean feat. Offering not only clear and integrated analysis, but also a diversity of perspectives, it will prove valuable to students of Asia for years to come.--Hon. Kevin Rudd, 26th Prime Minister of Australia and Global President of the Asia Society
