A Chinese century? Don't bet on it. -- Asia's resurgence: a product of the West's victory in the Cold War. -- Asia's rise in historical context. -- Strategic trends in Asia. -- Scenarios for East Asia's future regional order. -- A Transatlantic agenda for shaping the Asia-Pacific century. -- Does European integration offer a model for Asia? -- Freedom in Asia |
Summary |
These trends give the United States a promising opportunity to shape an emerging Asia-Pacific era. It should seize it, not only through bilateral regional initiatives, but by working in concert with European allies to intensify transatlantic engagement with Asia in ways that unite Atlantic and Pacific democracies in patterns of closer cooperation and sustain a common outlook on China while engaging the country from a position of strength. The Asia-Pacific region encompasses half of humanity, includes five nuclear powers, and soon will contain the world's four largest economies and biggest navies. The present historical moment offers the West a fleeting chance to shape emerging Asia in ways that preserve a privileged position of leadership and strengthen pluralism in the world's most dynamic region |
