Abstract
This study surveys the current and prospective security situation in East Asia. The importance of the area is apparent and needs no elaboration. It can only grow in the years ahead. While the current situation is relatively benign, there is widespread uneasiness about the future, concern that the end of the cold war will eventually mean an unravelling of order and security. This study brings varying perspectives to bear in assessing these concerns, giving special attention to implications for American foreign policy.
