Description
An essential road map to modern Asiaâs dynamic transition on the world stage from the foreign policy expert and author of There Goes the Neighbourhood.
The world has never seen economic development as rapid or significant as Asiaâs during recent decades. Home to three-fifths of the global population, this restless continent will soon produce more than half of the worldâs economic output and consume more energy than the rest of the world combined. All but three of the planetâs current and nascent nuclear powers are Asian, and it has the greatest growth in weapons spending of any other region. Yet, surprisingly little has been written about the future of Asia.
Restless Continent is the first book to examine the economic, social, political, and strategic trends across the worldâs largest continent, providing the necessary framework for thinking about the future of Asiaâand the world.
A professor of international affairs at Australian National University, Michael Wesley looks at the psychology of Asian countries becoming newly rich and powerful. He explores the geography and politics of conflict, and offers persuasive ideas about how to avert dispute, or even war.
Written for general readers and policy specialists alike, Restless Continent is an agenda-shaping book about international affairs in the twenty-first century.
