The Numbers Game in Asia-Pacific Cooperation

In: The Asia-Pacific, Regionalism and the Global System

  • John Ravenhill

Abstract

The expert contributors shed critical light on how significant developments are impacting on the global system. In particular, they consider emerging forms of global governance, and how the Asia-Pacific as a region, individual countries such as China, Japan, South Korea and the US, and regional organisations and forums like APEC are shaping the world. Uniquely, the discussion is not limited to East Asia but also takes Latin America prominently into the equation.
