The Indo-Pacific is arguably the most important and most dynamic region in the world today, with numerous opportunities and challenges. This book covers major security challenges in the Indo-Pacific region. Both traditional security challenges such as border and maritime disputes, arms races, weapons of mass destruction and sovereignty, and non-traditional security challenges such as demography, public health, climate change and the environment are addressed.Contributors who hail from Australia, China, India, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, the United States, Vietnam, and elsewhere carefully examine key security challenges facing some individual countries or the region as a whole and discuss policy implications moving forward.

Based on extensive research addressing these and other important policy questions, this book investigates China's new diplomacy since the early 1990s with a focus on Chinese initiatives in the Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and the South Pacific

This fully revised second edition covers Chinese initiatives in the Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean, Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and the South Pacific and studies China's current efforts to secure energy and other resources, to expand trade and investment, and to enhance 'soft power' around the world.
