It brings the history of trans-Pacific relations up to date, both chronologically and conceptually. As the wider Pacific is destined to play an increasingly crucial role in the world's strategic, political, economic, and cultural affairs, this volume will be of invaluable help to readers seeking to understand such a development in a global historical framework"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes English Print version record Subject Globalization -- United States Globalization -- East Asia Globalization -- Pacific Area International relations -- Pacific Ocean.
