Northeast Asia stands at a turning point in its history. The key economies of Asia are growing increasingly interdependent with each other and with the United States, and the movement toward regionalism is gaining momentum. Nationalism flourishes in spite of - and sometimes because of - interdependence. Northeast Asia today feels the presence of all three complex forces - national, regional, and global - connecting, competing, and colliding in myriad ways.

This seminar is based on the book Cross Currents: Regionalism and Nationalism in Northeast Asia, edited by Gi-Wook Shin and Daniel Sneider, published in October 2007 by Shorenstein APARC and distributed by the Brookings Press.

The panelists also presented at the Brookings Institution in Washington, D.C. on October 31, 2007. The transcript from that event, which also included Richard Bush, director, CNAPS at the Brookings Institution and book chapter author Randy Schriver of Armitage International, can be found below.
