Rezensionen

As China forcefully attempts world dominance, it disrupts the rules-based international order. Its refusal to heed the Permanent Court of Arbitration's award voiding its nine-dash line claim and acknowledging the Philippines exclusive sovereign rights in the West Philippine Sea, is only one example. In confronting challenges to maintaining a free, open and rules-based Indo-Pacific order, Indo-Pacific Strategies enlightens freedom-loving people through its analyses. The authors and editors deserve commendation.

From major powers to the too-often ignored small island states, the topics covered in this collection reflect the latest scholarship and thinking on the vital geopolitical environment of the Indo-Pacific. Of particular interest are perspectives on how Europe, the Middle East and Africa are interacting with the region. It will be hard for policymakers and strategists to find a more up-to-date, theoretically sophisticated and useful volume than Indo-Pacific Strategies.

- Michael R. Auslin, Payson J. Treat Distinguished Research Fellow, Hoover Institution, Stanford, and author of Asia's New Geopolitics

The age of the Indo-Pacific is here. Indo-Pacific Strategies will be an essential and comprehensive resource for scholars and policymakers as they grapple with the complexities of this new era in geopolitics. A real strength of this volume is the way it brings together an array of experts whose perspectives reflect the true multipolarity of the Indo-Pacific, a region too large and diverse for hegemony. And the welcome focus on formulating national strategies means this is not purely an academic exercise.

- Professor Rory Medcalf, Australian National University, author of Indo-Pacific Empire

As the idea of the Indo-Pacific overcomes the initial skepticism that greeted it and gains political traction, Cannon and Hakata offer a valuable assessment of the prospects for this new strategic geography. In combining the perspectives from key actors across this broad theater with deep theoretical and practical insights, Indo-Pacific Strategies becomes a good pivot to scholars interested in the geopolitical churn that is unfolding in the Eastern Hemisphere.
