They collectively emphasize the different scales at which the region holds significance, and particularly note how the region is often granted significance by local political forces as well as national interests.<\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Borderlands and sub-regions are especially important in this perspective, and the contributors show both how regionalism influences the people living in these areas and how they in turn shape the political priorities of states. At the same time, the worsening of relations between Japan and the Koreas and the increasing assertiveness of both China and Russia make it essential to understand the dynamics of the region, as well as how they have changed during and following the Trump era.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Geo-Politics in Northeast Asia is essential reading for students and scholars of Political Geography, International Relations and Strategic Studies, as well as for those with a research focus on Northeast Asia, or the wider Asia-Pacific and Indo-Pacific regions.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"cxmmr5t8 oygrvhab hcukyx3x c1et5uql o9v6fnle ii04i59q\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Those interested in reading the book now are in luck! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.taylorfrancis.com\/books\/oa-edit\/10.4324\/9781003288039\/geo-politics-northeast-asia-akihiro-iwashita-edward-boyle-yong-chool-ha?fbclid=IwAR0itkV50E0idQDwcOh3sq3iyhcCZn3u9EcsVXncbrQK9CbsOV94ni7m22o\">Click here to find an open access version of the publication<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CKS Faculty member and JSIS Korea Foundation Professor of Korean Social Science, Yong-Chool Ha, joins Professors Akihiro Iwashita and Edward Boyle in editing the forthcoming publication, Geo-Politics in Northeast Asia.
