Southeast Asia Views the United States : Perceptions, Policies, and Prospects

This book is a comprehensive study of Southeast Asian views of their respective countries’ foreign policies towards the United States. The Southeast Asian contributors are all individuals who bridge both academia and foreign policy circles in their countries, in Southeast Asia, the Indo-Pacific, more broadly, and globally. There is a dearth of theoretically informed, empirically rich literature on the foreign policies of Southeast Asian states. This volume, with eight chapters written by some of Southeast Asia’s leading analysts, is therefore important, timely, and fills a large gap in the literature.
