N2  - 'This volume has been prompted by the high tensions on the Korean peninsula and between the People's Republic of China and Japan in recent years. Examining China's military modernization and relationship with the USA, the regional arms race and the security challenges facing Japan and the Korean peninsula, this title aims to assist in a better understanding of the issues in the region, to suggest possible solutions, and to draw attention to the need for diplomacy, confidence-building measures, crisis management mechanisms and other measures to prevent conflict'--
