Summary: The first part of this edition deals with grand strategy of China, Japan, and Korea, and what are described as Russia's less than grand strategy and India's aspirations to greatness. The second section looks at regional developments: the potential for convergence in Pakistan and Bangladesh; political change in Southeast Asia and its implications for American strategy; and the development of foreign policy in Central Asian states. Part three "special studies" contains a study of the factors affecting Iran's nuclear plans, an assessment of the potential for multilateral regional security arrangements in Asia, and an examination of environmental degradation as a security challenge in Asia. As usual at the back of the book are Strategic Indicators with tables of data on topics from energy consumption to population and defence spending.
