Abstract
Just as Asia began asserting itself economically in the 1960s and 1970s, it now does so militarily. The rise of Asian military power ushers in a new a ge in which Western interference in Asia will prove far more treacherous an d costly than ever. For the first time in modern history, Asia has the powe r to shape its future-for better or worse.
