Softcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Risse. NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY FINANCIAL TIMES From Robert D.Kaplan, named one of the world's Top 100 Global Thinkers by Foreign Policymagazine, comes a penetrating look at the volatile region that will dominatethe future of geopolitical conflict. Over the last decade, the center of worldpower has been quietly shifting from Europe to Asia. With oil reserves ofseveral billion barrels, an estimated nine hundred trillion cubic feet ofnatural gas, and several centuries' worth of competing territorial claims, theSouth China Sea in particular is a simmering pot of potential conflict. Theunderreported military buildup in the area where the Western Pacific meets theIndian Ocean means that it will likely be a hinge point for global war andpeace for the foreseeable future. In Asia's Cauldron, Robert D. Kaplan offersup a vivid snapshot of the nations surrounding the South China Sea, theconflicts brewing in the region at the dawn of the twenty-first century, andtheir implications for global peace and stability. One of the world's mostperceptive foreign policy experts, Kaplan interprets America's interests inAsia in the context of an increasingly assertive China. He explains how theregion's unique geography fosters the growth of navies but also impedesaggression. And he draws a striking parallel between China's quest forhegemony in the South China Sea and the United States' imperial adventure inthe Caribbean more than a century ago. To understand the future of conflict inEast Asia, Kaplan argues, one must understand the goals and motivations of itsleaders and its people. Part travelogue, part geopolitical primer, Asia'sCauldron takes us on a journey through the region's boom cities and ramshackleslums: from Vietnam, where the superfueled capitalism of the erstwhilecolonial capital, Saigon, inspires the geostrategic pretensions of theofficial seat of government in Hanoi, to Malaysia, where a unique mix ofauthoritarian Islam and Western-style consumerism creates quite possibly theultimate postmodern society; and from Singapore, whose benevolent autocracyhelped foster an economic miracle, to the Philippines, where a different brandof authoritarianism under Ferdinand Marcos led not to economic growth but todecades of corruption and crime. At a time when every day's news seems tocontain some new story--large or small--that directly relates to conflictsover the South China Sea, Asia's Cauldron is an indispensable guide to acorner of the globe that will affect all of our lives for years to come.Praise for Asia's Cauldron Asia's Cauldron is a short book with a powerfulthesis, and it stands out for its clarity and good sense. . . . If you aredoing business in China, traveling in Southeast Asia or just obsessing aboutgeopolitics, you will want to read it.--The New York Times Book Review Kaplanhas established himself as one of our most consequential geopoliticalthinkers. . . . [Asia's Cauldron] is part treatise on geopolitics, part travelnarrative. Indeed, he writes in the tradition of the great travel writers.--The Weekly Standard Kaplan's fascinating book is a welcome challenge to thepessimists who see only trouble in China's rise and the hawks who view it asmalign.--The Economist Muscular, deeply knowledgeable . . . Kaplan is anultra-realist [who] takes a non-moralistic stance on questions of power anddiplomacy.--Financial Times From the Hardcover edition.
