This book examines the intellectual, cultural, social, psychological, political,
economic and strategic dimensions of this burgeoning interaction. The discussions
contained in the twelve essays, written by specialists and experts in Asia-Pacific
international relations, focus on the likely impacts of this Asian-Western interaction
on the political, economic, cultural and strategic landscape of the Asia-Pacific
region.
The changing roles of the major Asia-Pacific powers, especially the United States,
China and Japan, are analyzed in relation to the interests and involvement of
other equally important actors such as Australia, Canada and Asean. It also
incorporates analyses and commentaries on the strategic implications of the
Asian Financial Crisis, especially how it might impact on future Asia-Pacific
interactions and regional stability in the new millennium.
