Synopsis:

This book traces the dynamics of international rivalry from the late 1970s upthrough the present. Among the members of the dominant North politicaldiscord has become prominent recently in debates ranging from the Balkan Warsto the Second Gulf War. Yet a wide array of disputes-launching of globalpositioning systems to steel imports-have shattered the semblance of unity andcooperation among the members of the North, the triad of Europe, U.S., andeast Asia. The book explores the subversive ways in which the configuration ofeconomic networks in east Asia are subtly leaving their mark on the structure ofthe world-system. Also addressed are the ramifications on the South of thissharpening rivalry and, more importantly, whether this round of imperial rivalrywill eventually give way, as previously in history, to new forms of internationaldomination.
