520    "Gulf stability is coming to play a larger role in the 
       foreign policy calculus of many states, but the evolving 
       role of Asian powers is largely under-represented in the 
       International Relations literature. This volume addresses 
       this gap with a set of empirically rich, theory driven 
       case studies written by academics from or based in the 
       countries in question. The underlying assumption is not 
       that Asian powers have already become important security 
       actors in the Gulf, but rather that they perceive the Gulf
       as a region of increasing strategic relevance. How will 
       leaders in these countries adjust to an evolving regional 
       framework? Will there be coordinated efforts to establish 
       an Asian-centered approach to Gulf stability, or will 
       Asian rivalries make the region a theatre of competition? 
       Will US-China tensions force alignment choices among Asian
       powers? Will Asian states balance, bandwagon, hedge, or 
       adopt some other approach to their Gulf relationships? 
       These questions become even more important as the western 
       boundaries of Asia increasingly come to incorporate the 
       Middle East. The book will appeal to scholars and students
       in the fields of International Relations, Security Studies,
       and International Political Economy, as well as area 
       specialists on the Gulf and those working on foreign 
       policy issues on each of the Asian countries included. 
       Professionals in government and non-government agencies 
       will also find it very useful"--|cProvided by publisher.
