Security Cooperation in Northeast Asia

This book offers detailed examinations about how this potentially tense region of the world is redefining certain longstanding national interests, and shows how this shift is the result of changing power relations, the desire to protect hard-won economic gains, as well as growing trust in new processes designed to foster regional cooperation over regional conflict. Presenting new and timely research on topics that are vital to the security future of one of the world¿s most important geographical regions, this book will be of great value to students and scholars of Asian politics, regionalism, international politics and security studies.
