In this study, international scholars provide an in-depth exploration of the forces shaping the balance of power in the international political arena. The contributors examine the changing relationships among economic, military, and political bases of power as they define national security. U.S. hegemony and its subsequent decline as well as the rise of Japan as a world economic power are detailed.
