Russia, America, and Security in the Asia-Pacific
Abstract
This edited volume is the outcome of a joint project between the Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies (APCSS) in Honolulu and Far Eastern National University (FENU) in Vladivostok that was designed to analyze, evaluate, and compare Russian and American perspectives on selected topics of Asia-Pacific security. The participants of the project presented their final papers at a workshop in Honolulu on 2 4 May 2005, which followed a preliminary tasksetting joint roundtable that took place in Vladivostok in May 2004. In addition to the APCSS and FENU experts, the project brought together senior Russian and American government representatives, diplomats, and defense officials. The contributions to the project by Victor Gorchakov, Vice-Governor of the Maritime Region (Primorskiy Krai), and John Mark Pommersheim, US Consul General in Vladivostok, were particularly noteworthy and indicative of the importance attached to the project by both the Russian and American sides. This volume includes 14 chapters on seven topics written by seven American and seven Russian experts. The opinions expressed in the chapters are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the official policies or positions of their organizations and governments.
