"For much of the post war era, the substance and scope of international security was defined by the parameters of the Cold War. But the end of the Cold War has created a new global context. This text seeks to map out the nature of post Cold War security by exploring the patterns of international conflict, weighing non state challenges to security, examining inter state cooperation in the security field and evaluating the security dynamics of the Asia Pacific region."
