Routledge, London, 2001. Softcover (16 x 24 cm), 234 pages. ISBN: 0415157633. Very Good condition. This study offers the first serious investigation into the prospects for a security community outside the Euro-Atlantic region. It examines several key issues which will determine the future stability of the southeast Asian and Asia Pacific Region.
