This is a unique and timely study of one of the world's most dynamic regions, and an area of inescapable and rising importance to Australia. The book looks at the transformation of a zone on which Australia is already disproportionately dependent for its wealth, and for its future opportunity.
It also studies the threats, challenges, and concerns which the Indian Ocean region will pose to Australia in the coming decades. It ranges from issues of regional food production, growing economic and population significance for the region in global terms, the rise of regional powers, and the new surge into the region of foreign powers. Such a Full Sea presents a series of cogent options for Australia to cope with, and prosper from, the transformation of the Indian Ocean region in the coming decades within a challenging economic era.
