This volume investigates how the shifting distribution of power and the rise of new regional actors influence the stability and international order of East and Southeast Asia. Editor Peter Shearman compiles contributions from various scholars to analyze the geopolitical implications of China's ascent, the decline of Western hegemony, and the emergence of new security challenges. The text utilizes a framework of power transition theory to evaluate whether these regional dynamics are leading toward a new Cold War or a restructured global order.
