Dr. Paul Heer- The Changing Security Environment in East Asia

Former National Intelligence Officer for East Asia Dr. Paul Heer will discuss the security environment in East Asia with Government Professor Jennifer Lind. They will address how the security environment in East Asia is changing as a result of historic shifts in the balance of power--particularly the so-called 'rise' of China--and corresponding shifts in region-wide perceptions of the relative influence of China and the United States. These shifts reflect growing regional uncertainty about both China's strategic ambitions and intentions, and the substance and sustainability of the US rebalance and commitment to East Asia. Competing nationalisms and longstanding historical animosities are further complicating East Asian countries' efforts to address the challenges and implications of a strategic environment in transition.
