"This book explores the implications of urbanization and climate change for peri-urban water security in South Asia. Focusing on four locations in the region, namely Kathmandu (Nepal), Khulna (Bangladesh), and Hyderabad and Gurgaon (India), the book describes how climate change and urbanization shape peri-urban water security. The research documents the socio-technical mediation of water insecurity, describing both technological and institutional adaptive responses. In describing adaptation, the focus is both on planned and autonomous adaptation. The book further documents the differential vulnerabilities of peri-urban communities, describing the factors that disadvantage certain men, women, and groups of people as compared to others. With a focus on peri-urban contexts, the book bridges an important gap in current studies of adaptation and vulnerability to the impacts of climate change that tend to focus on purely agrarian or urban contexts. It thus contributes to the emerging body of work on peri-urban issues as well as to the literature on vulnerability and adaptation. The research presented is interdisciplinary in nature, employing a wide range of research tools and methods across the natural and social sciences."

"Provides an overview of East and South-East Asia's international relations, security perspectives, foreign and defence policies, and regional non-traditional security issues, including globalization, transnational health challenges, population growth and the environment"

"Rarely has security been such a preoccupation of Australian politics, and rarely has it seemed so far from being achieved. This celebrated book argues that security has dominated and distorted Australia's foreign policy and national life, from Cook's first voyage to the Tampa crisis, 9/11 and Iraq. Whether in the Great War, Vietnam or the treatment of asylum seekers, Anthony Burke shows that Australia's security has been bought with the insecurity and suffering of others. Against this corrosive tradition, he offers a new - cosmopolitan and non-coercive - model of national existence and responsibility. At once a deep historical survey and an argument with its society, Fear of Security is a landmark account of how Australia relates to itself, its region and the world. Turning powerful academic and political orthodoxies on their heads, it is essential reading for those concerned with the burning questions that face Australia and the Asia-Pacific."

"Traces changes in the concept of security in Asia from realist to cooperative, comprehensive, and human security approaches, and assesses a number of policy alternatives to management of both old and new security threats. This book concludes that traditional security approaches remain valid but need to be adapted to the new challenges"

"Ide pembentukan Komunitas Politik Keamanan ASEAN APSC pada tahun 2015 merupakan perwujudan salah satu pilar dari Komunitas ASEAN. ASEAN Community Pembentukan komunitas keamanan ini merupakan suatu fenomena yang menarik karena komunitas ini dibentuk dalam suatu kawasan regional yang terdiri dari negara negara dengan kapabilitas militer yang cenderung serupa karena tidak terdapat hegemon regional di kawasan tersebut.Penelitian ini berfokus untuk menganalisis mengapa proses pematangan APSC diikuti oleh poliferasi senjata ofensif oleh negara negara anggota ASEAN Penelitian ini juga bertujuan untuk menunjukkan keterkaitan antara proses pematangan Komunitas Politik Keamanan ASEAN APSC dengan dinamika persenjataan di Asia Tenggara serta seberapa besar tingkat interaksi antara kedua variabel tersebut.

The idea of the establishment of ASEAN Political Security Community APSC in 2015 is a manifestation of security pillar which is one of the pillars that support ASEAN Community The establishment of this security community is an interesting phenomenon as it is created in a region that consists of states with similar military capabilities as the region does not possess regional hegemon.This research focuses on the question why the maturation of ASEAN Political Security Community APSC is followed by the arms proliferation of ASEAN member states. It also explains the linkage between the maturation of APSC and the arms dynamics in Southeast Asia as well as the level of interaction among the two variables."

"ABSTRAKSkripsi ini membahas pengaruh dari konsep munculnya konsep String of Pearls,sebuah konsep yang pertama kali muncul pada tahun 2005 dalam laporan Darikonsultan Departemen Pertahanan AS mengenai aktifitas China yang semakinmeningkat di Samudera Hindia, terhadap dinamika keamanan regional. Berangkatdari regional security complex theory (RSCT) yang dikemukakan Barry Buzanmengenai signifikansi dan otonomi dari level keamanan regional, penulismencoba mencari tahu apakah pengaruh dari munculnya titik-titik pengaruhgeopolitik China di sepanjang Samudera Hindia dan Laut China Selatan (bentuknyata dari String of Pearls) terhadap kompleks keamanan Asia Timur dan AsiaSelatan. Dengan menggunakan variabel-variabel dari kompleks keamananregional yang dijelaskan oleh Buzan, penulis melakukan peneltian kuantitatifuntuk menjawab permasalahan tersebut, di mana String of Pearls sebagai variabelpolaritas menjadi variabel independen, variabel batasan geografis, struktur anarki,dan pola amity/enmity menjadi variabel antara (intervening variable) dan akhirnyatransformasi kompleks keamanan sebagai variabel dependen. Dalam penelitianini, ditemukan hasil bahwa String of Pearls menyebabkan transformasi eksternalkompleks keamanan regional Asia Timur dan Asia Selatan dan membentukkompleks keamanan Asia yang solid. Hal ini disebabkan oleh meningkatnyaabsolute power dan kapasitas interaksi India dan di saat yang sama terjadi aktifitaspenguatan dan perluasan jariangan quasi alliance di antara sekutu-sekutu ASsementara di saat yang sama melakukan hedging terhadap China sebagai bentukantisipasi untuk merespon semakin menguatnya kapabilitas kekuatan laut China.India pada akhirnya menjadi bagian dari struktur polaritas dari kawasan AsiaTimur, menyebabkan peleburan batasan geografis antara kompleks Asia Timurdan Asia Selatan dan akhirnya terjadilah transformasi eksternal tersebut.

AbstractThis Thesis focus on the impact of String of Pearls concept (originated from a2005 report for US Defense Ministry by Booz allen Hamilton about the increasingChina activity in Indian Ocean) for regional security dynamics. With Buzan?sregional security complex theory (RSCT) as the basis, about the significance andauthonomy of regional securitylevel, the author try to find out the impact of realform of String of Pearls for the composing variables of East Asia and South Asiasecurity complex. With the using of regional security complex variables (asexplained by Buzan), the autor conduct a quantitative research to answer theresearch question, where String of Pearls as polarity variable become independentvariable and measured with Bueno De Mesquita?s systemic polarity measurementmethod. Boundary, anarchic structure, and amity/enmity pattern as interveningvariable and security complex transformation as dependent variable. In thisresearch, the author found that String of Pearls causes external transformation ofEast and South Asia security complex and formed a fully pledges Asia securitycomplex. This happened because the increasing of India?s absolute power andinteraction capacity, while at the same time there were activities of strengtheningand expanding quasi alliance networking between US allies and hedging towardsChina as a respond of the increasing of China sea power capability. Because ofthat, India become the part of East Asia polarity structure, and with that theboundary between East and South Asia melted and the external transformationoccurred."
