About the Book

The contributions contained in the volume examine and discuss the problems and prospects of building a new Asia through cooperation in the field of security and development at both regional and Pan-Asian levels. Besides, delineating the contours of the changing dynamics of regionalism and regional cooperation in the various regions of the vast Asian continent, an abode for more than half of humankind, representing a wide spectrum of religio-cultural and ethnic diversity, the contributors also highlight the urgency of overcoming this diversity through joint efforts for development and ensuring security through non-military means in the spirit of the historic Bandung conference.

The book also draws attention towards the need for ushering in a multi-polar world to successfully meet the challenges of globalisation through intensified cooperation among the Asian states at all levels -bilateral, trilateral and multilateral. Notwith- standing, the heavy odds the contributors drawn from India and a number of Asian and Eurasian countries look forward to a vibrant and dynamic new Asia emerging out of the post-cold war era.
