The Problem Of Asia And Its Effect Upon International Policies (1900) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781164064916)

The Problem of Asia and Its Effect Upon International Policies is a book written by American naval officer and historian Alfred Thayer Mahan in 1900. In this book, Mahan discusses the impact of Asia on international relations and the policies that should be adopted by various countries to deal with the challenges posed by the continent. Mahan argues that Asia's growing economic and military power poses a threat to the Western world, and that it is essential for Western powers to maintain their dominance in the region. He also discusses the role of Japan in the international arena and the need for the United States to maintain a strong naval presence in the Pacific to counterbalance the growing power of Asia.The book is divided into three parts, with the first part focusing on the historical background of Asia, the second part discussing the current state of affairs in the region, and the third part proposing solutions to the problems posed by Asia. Mahan's arguments in this book were influential in shaping American foreign policy towards Asia in the early 20th century, particularly in the lead up to World War II. Overall, The Problem of Asia and Its Effect Upon International Policies is a seminal work in the field of international relations and provides valuable insights into the challenges posed by Asia and the strategies that should be adopted to deal with them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
