Title: The international politics of the Asia-Pacific since 1945
First published: 2004
Description: "This fully updated and revised edition of Michael Yahuda's textbook includes four whole new chapters on the post-Cold War period and introduces students to the international politics of the Asia-Pacific region since 1945. As well as assessing the post-Cold War uncertainties that challenged balance and power within the region, Yahuda also examines the most recent period that includes major developments involving the US 'war on terror', globalization and the increased cooperative security embraced by China, Japan and Russia as a result. Yahuda analyzes politics in terms of global, regional and local trends, combining narrative with analysis."--Jacket.
