My forthcoming book, The Economic and Strategic Rise of China and India: Realignments After the 1997 Financial Crisis, deals with three main topics:

1. analysis of the differences in economic performance and recovery strategy for the principal economies in East Asia;

2. an assessment of how the current patterns in economic growth are affecting various regional institutions like Asian Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF), and ASEAN + 3 (ASEAN plus China, Japan, and S. Korea), as well as proposals for a Northeast Asian Free Trade arrangements and the Asian Monetary Initiative; and  

3. an evaluation of how the anticipated economic and regional developments will affect strategic alignments. Specifically: how will the continued difficulties in Southeast Asia and the slow growth in Taiwan and   S. Korea affect links with the present and future major powers (The United States, China, Japan, and India)?

This research uses a combination of political economy and international relations methods, with a strong empirical emphasis and policy-orientation.
