Asia's deadly triangle: How arms, energy and growth threaten to destabilize Asia-Pacific

---

In the early 1970s, the Middle East began arming itself with the windfall profits from oil price increases. Now Asia, with its newfound affluence as the world's lowest-cost and highest-quality manufacturer, is devoting much of its windfall profits to arms. Growth and emerging energy shortages are giving birth to dangerous new tensions. These build on ancient antagonisms, the residue of the Cold War, and the rising sophistication of local technology to spur a geostrategic competition with disturbing implications for the new century now looming. Asia's stunningly successful political economy threatens to become a military danger zone - with global implications. In Asia's Deadly Triangle, Kent E. Calder, director of US-Japan Relations at Princeton, shows how a combination of high-speed economic growth, impending energy shortages, and political insecurity could well provoke an accelerating arms buildup and deepening geopolitical rivalries.
