520 |a This edited volume analyses the naval arms race in South-East Asia, and reviews the content, purposes and consequences of the naval policies and development of the main countries of the region.The rise of naval capability in the countries of the Asia-Pacific Region is increasingly recognised as a major indicator of the 'rise of Asia' and its increasing importance in the world's political, economic and strategic future.
