And he does so with his usual clear-eyed sense of the reality behind the official rhetoric. (Bresnan, John )

PRAISE FOR THE FIRST EDITION A remarkable tour d'horizon that applies historical, geographic, anthropological, sociological, and political frameworks for a multidimensional assessment of Southeast Asia's past, present, and future. The book's analysis of domestic and international politics as well as traditional and non-traditional security issues makes it a must for students and policymakers of Asian affairs. (Simon, Sheldon W. )

Donald Weatherbee, an eminent scholar on Southeast Asia, has updated his superb volume on the region's international relations. The book blends analysis from different fields to provide a comprehensive view of Southeast Asia's problems and prospects. His encyclopedic knowledge of the region and incisive approach combine to yield a vital resource for both generalists and specialists. (David B. H. Denoon )

This book is an excellent addition to the existing literature on international relations in Southeast Asia. Unlike similar books, its approach is thematic and moves away from a traditionally historical approach. This book is highly recommended for those who want to gain a general understanding of events in Southeast Asia in the context of international relations. (East Asia Integration Studies )

If you are looking for an excellent text on international relations in Southeast Asia from a realist perspective, this book is arguably the best. Weatherbee provides superb insights with strong empirical support that call into question the theoretical validity of liberal institutionalism, functionalism, social constructivism and environmentalism. . . . I highly recommend the book to anyone interested in Southeast Asian politics. (Pacific Affairs )
