Co-edited and introduced by Ashley J. Tellis, Strategic Asia 2017-18: Power, Ideas, and Military Strategy in the Asia-Pacific identifies how Asia’s major powers have developed military strategies to address their most significant challenges. In each chapter, a leading expert analyzes how national power and capabilities interact with strategic culture to shape a country’s military strategies and explains why decision-makers come to favor certain options over others. This is the final volume from a three-year project that takes stock of the national power of the major Asian states.
