The fate of the 21st century may be decided in the Western Pacific.

As China pushes from maritime control toward global dominance, the world stands at a crossroads. Will rising tensions spiral into open conflict—or can the region find a path to stability?

The Great Power Game in the Western Pacific delivers a gripping, in-depth analysis of the geopolitical, economic, technological, and environmental dimensions of one of the most contested arenas on Earth. Drawing on history, law, diplomacy, and military strategy, this book reveals:

• China's strategic ambitions include dominating the South China Sea and expanding the Belt and Road Initiative's maritime reach.
• The role of nationalism in shaping Beijing's assertive policies and global narrative.
• Flashpoints—like Taiwan, the Senkaku Islands, and the Korean Peninsula—that could ignite regional war.
• The Indo-Pacific strategies of the United States, Japan, ASEAN, and other key players.
• Technological supremacy battles in AI, cyber warfare, and supply chains.
• Environmental stakes as oceans become theaters of both conflict and cooperation.
• Peacebuilding pathways to prevent catastrophe and foster regional resilience.
  

From historical grievances to cutting-edge military technology, from propaganda wars to alliance diplomacy, this book offers a panoramic view of the forces shaping Asia's future—and, by extension, the global order.

Whether you are a policy analyst, student of international relations, investor watching Asia's markets, or simply a concerned global citizen, this book will give you the clarity to understand the stakes and the insight to see beyond the headlines.
