{"product_id":"okinawa-ra-mason-9781788217859","title":"Okinawa: Great Power Competition and the Keystone of the Pacific","description":"Okinawa is a tiny island of huge geopolitical importance. Located between the tip of Japan's mainland and Taiwan, it hosts key US military bases, which have played a contested and controversial role on the island. In addition, the sovereignty of some of Okinawa's outlying territory is disputed by China and its future is tied closely to the competing strategies over Taiwan. It is also a potential target for North Korean missiles aimed at American military assets on the islands. In this short and revealing book, Ra Mason explores why and how this island paradise and the waters around it could trigger great power conflict.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ra Mason\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1788217853\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781788217859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Agenda Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Ra Mason","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46465688764671,"sku":"9781788217859","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5288ca5a-a3c2-4d2f-9701-1988207398ac.jpg?v=1736346991","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/okinawa-ra-mason-9781788217859","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
