U S Asian Relations books, These essays seek to determine whether there is a Reagan foreign policy with respect to Asia; if so, what is that policy; and by what strategy that policy is transtaled into action and with what results. Beginning with an exploration into the Reagan Administration's global security plan and how Asia fits into it, the volume looks into the subregional units or countries -- Northeast Asia covering Korea, Japan, China and the Soviet Far East, Southeast Asia and the ASEAN nations. Of partuclar interest is Norman Levin's essay in which he argues that the current policy is not a departure but an evolutionary extension of the last two years of the Carter Administration. He concludes that although the Reagan policy in Asia has had a number of positive effects, the Administration has yet to devise a strategy for moderating superpower competition and coming to grips with the Soviet Union as an Asian power.
