 - Strategic Asia .
<br/><br/> This edition of the Strategic Asia series looks at the security implications of rising levels of trade and economic interdependence in the region. Among the specific topics covered are: the growth of China, economic complexity between the USA and Asia arising from the formers lack of fiscal restraint, Russian policy towards Asia, and the likely impact of a bird flu pandemic. There is a chapter on "Strategic dimensions of economic interdependence in Southeast Asia" which considers how ASEAN's system of multiple ASEAN+1 connections affects stability and relations with the USA in particular. 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.
