The Oxford Handbook of International Law in Asia and the Pacific
The growing economic and political significance of Asia has exposed a tension in the modern international order. Despite expanding power and influence, Asian states have played a minimal role in creating the norms and institutions of international law; today they are the least likely to be parties to international agreements or to be represented in international organizations. That is changing. There is widespread scholarly and practitioner interest in international law at present in the Asia-Pacific region, as well as developments in the practice of states. The change has been driven by threats as well as opportunities. Transnational issues such as climate change and occasional flashpoints ...

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is a prime example of the ability of the established democracies to work together. . ." Hamburg then goes on to ask provocative...
21st Century Strategies of the Trilateral Countries: in Concert Or Conflict?
This book is centered on essays by Robert Zoellick, Peter Sutherland, and Hisashi Owada. The United States, Zoellick writes, has "four strategic objectives that would preserve and expand the political community it sponsored after World War II. First, the United States needs to overhaul the ties with its two primary overseas partners, Western Europe and Japan, to better meet a new generation of challenges." Sutherland frames the central challenges for the European Union in terms of "maintaining the supranational core in an enlarged Union whilst contemporaneously relating Europe positively to globalization.... (A) failure to achieve internal reform will seriously hold back the EU's global role...

The Yearbook has established itself as an authori...
