| Zusammenfassung: | American security and prosperity now depend on Asia. William H. Overholt offers an iconoclastic analysis of developments in each major Asian country, Asian international relations, and US foreign policy. Drawing on decades of political and business experience, he argues that obsolete Cold War attitudes tie the US increasingly to an otherwise isolated Japan and obscure the reality that a US-Chinese bicondominium now manages most Asian issues. Military priorities risk polarizing the region unnecessarily, weaken the economic relationships that engendered American preeminence, and ironically enhance Chinese influence. As a result, US influence in Asia is declining. Overholt disputes the argument that democracy promotion will lead to superior development and peace, and forecasts a new era in which Asian geopolitics could take a drastically different shape. Covering Japan, China, Russia, Central Asia, India, Pakistan, Korea, and South-East Asia, Overholt offers invaluable insights for scholars, policy-makers, business people, and general readers |

Overholt Asia, America, & the Transformation of Geopolitics Cambridge Cambridge University Press 2008 1 online resource (xl, 322 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015) Introduction: The inertia of foreign policies -- Cold War assumptions and changing realities -- Regional trends -- Asia's big powers : Japan and China -- Smaller places, decisive pivots : Taiwan, Korea, Southeast Asia -- The aspiring power and its near abroad : India and South Asia -- Russia and its near abroad -- The United States and the new Asia -- Scenarios for the future -- Conclusion American security and prosperity now depend on Asia. William H. Overholt offers an iconoclastic analysis of developments in each major Asian country, Asian international relations, and US foreign policy. Drawing on decades of political and business experience, he argues that obsolete Cold War attitudes tie the US increasingly to an otherwise isolated Japan and obscure the reality that a US-Chinese bicondominium now manages most Asian issues. Military priorities risk polarizing the region unnecessarily, weaken the economic relationships that engendered American preeminence, and ironically enhance Chinese influence. As a result, US influence in Asia is declining. Overholt disputes the argument that democracy promotion will lead to superior development and peace, and forecasts a new era in which Asian geopolitics could take a drastically different shape. Covering Japan, China, Russia, Central Asia, India, Pakistan, Korea, and South-East Asia, Overholt offers invaluable insights for scholars, policy-makers, business people, and general readers Geschichte 1945-2006 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1990-2006 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Außenpolitik Politik Geopolitics / East Asia Internationale Politik (DE-588)4072885-7 gnd rswk-swf Ost-West-Konflikt (DE-588)4075770-5 gnd rswk-swf Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 gnd rswk-swf Ostasien USA United States / Foreign relations / East Asia East Asia / Foreign relations / United States East Asia / Politics and government / 21st century Asien (DE-588)4003217-6 gnd rswk-swf Japan (DE-588)4028495-5 gnd rswk-swf China (DE-588)4009937-4 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Japan (DE-588)4028495-5 g Wirtschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4066438-7 s China (DE-588)4009937-4 g Geschichte 1945-2006 z 1\p DE-604 USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Internationale Politik (DE-588)4072885-7 s Asien (DE-588)4003217-6 g Geschichte 1990-2006 z 2\p DE-604 Ost-West-Konflikt (DE-588)4075770-5 s Geschichte z 3\p DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-72023-6 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-0-521-89587-3 https://doi.org/10.1017/CBO9780511790775 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
