About U.S. Strategy In The Asian Century: Empowering
Product Description As the Indo-Pacific emerges as the world’s most strategically consequential region and competition with China intensifies, the United States must adapt its approach if it seeks to preserve its power and sustain regional stability and prosperity. Yet as China grows more powerful and aggressive and the United States appears increasingly unreliable, the Indo-Pacific has become riven with uncertainty. These dynamics threaten to undermine the region’s unprecedented peace and prosperity. U.S. Strategy in the Asian Century offers vital perspective on the future of power dynamics in the Indo-Pacific, focusing on the critical roles that American allies and partners can play. Abraham M. Denmark argues that these alliances and partnerships represent indispensable strategic assets for the United States. They will be necessary in any effort by Washington to compete with China, promote prosperity, and preserve a liberal order in the Indo-Pacific. Blending academic rigor and practical policy experience, Denmark analyzes the future of major-power competition in the region, with an eye toward American security interests. He details a pragmatic approach for the United States to harness the power of its allies and partners to ensure long-term regional stability and successfully navigate the complexities of the new era. Review With insight and urgency, Denmark draws on his years in the Pentagon to describe how the United States can successfully adapt to rapid technological change and dramatic geopolitical evolution in the Indo-Pacific. U.S. Strategy in the Asian Century is a must-read for anyone interested in how the U.S. can sustain its leadership in the world’s most important region. -- Ash Carter, former secretary of defense Denmark’s book is a timely reminder of how critical alliances and partnerships are to the United States, a fact only reinforced by the COVID-19 pandemic. He draws on nearly two decades of experience working on the Indo-Pacific region inside and outside of government, delivering a country-by-country exploration of the Indo-Pacific’s geopolitical importance to the United States and an actionable blueprint for our future strategy. -- Congresswoman Jane Harman, director, president, and CEO of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars Denmark has written the playbook for the post-coronavirus world. Cooperation with allies and friends will become essential to balance China, which is determined to emerge from the virus in a stronger strategic position. This is where we start. -- Richard L. Armitage, former deputy secretary of state At a time of profound geopolitical change and increasing competition in the Indo-Pacific, Denmark offers a compelling strategy for protecting vital U.S. economic and security interests in the region: Use all of the instruments of our power―diplomatic, economic, military, and “soft”―to engage and empower our regional allies and partners to shore up the foundations of the regional order. This insightful book is a must-read for scholars and practitioners alike. -- Michèle Flournoy, former undersecretary of defense for policy Denmark has delivered a timely and impactful study of how the United States can further its purposes in Asia through deeper engagements with allies and partners. Deeply researched and clearly argued, this well-conceived book arrives at a critical juncture when American strategy in the region is under fundamental review. -- Kurt M. Campbell, former assistant secretary of state for East Asia and the Pacific As disruptive tailwinds propel Asia and the Indo-Pacific to the center of global politics, Abraham Denmark’s meticulous research provides a pragmatic rationale and lucid strategy to recalibrate American engagements in the region with old and new partners. A must read. -- Samir Saran, president of Observer Research Foundation, India This excellent book shows with terrifying plausibility how quickly American power can become hollow leadershi
