More DescriptionNortheast Asia could be on the verge of becoming the world's third great region, but expanding economic ties have not been supported by security cooperation and trust. Rozman traces the problems in establishing regionalism over 15 years. Relying on many sources in all of the languages of the region, he offers a detailed picture of conflicting strategies in China, Japan, Russia, and South Korea. While covering U.S. globalization policies, he draws attention to debates about bilateral relations in the four countries along with shifting outcomes over six periods. Highlighting a central theme for each period and why it was unsuitable for a breakthrough, Rozman ends with lessons for accelerating the advance of regionalism.
