Asian Security Practice by Muthiah Alagappa
This study of how 16 Asian states conceive of their security identifies and explains the security concerns and behavior of central decision makers, asking who or what is to be protected, against what potential threats, and how security policies have changed over time.
"It is not often that a book of this quality, substance, and scope appears. . .This book is, without a doubt, a major contribution to the literature on the Asian security practice and one which can be confidently predicted to become a standard reference for many years to come." —Journal of Asian Studies
