ASIA PACIFIC AND THE GLOBAL ORDER AFTER SEPTEMBER 11

2002–2003

As part of the Asia Pacific Agenda Project (APAP), in 2002, under the guidance of former Korean Foreign Minister Han Sung-Joo (then president of Korea University), a multilateral team of six younger scholars explored the issue of regional and global order in the wake of the 9-11 terrorist attacks in the United States. The study addressed four main areas: Islam-related factors, implications for international institutions; major power relations in the region; and key country perspectives, including the Chinese, Indonesian, and Japanese perspectives. Drafts of the papers were presented at the Asia Pacific Agenda Project Forum in Siem Reap, Cambodia, in February 2002. The final papers were published in 2003 in the volume listed below.
