| Summary / Abstract (Note) | For the first time since the beginning of the sixteenth centaury, the global strategic landscape and political and financial structures so far dominated by the United States and Europe is witnessing a power shift of Asia. The rise of Asia from subordinate status under Western colonialism and also during the cold war is not only a critique of Western-centrism but also describes a reconstruction of the idea of Asia Which constitute defiance of the colonial, interfering, and dominating forces that have divided Asia in the past. Various European scholars of geopolitics have called this shift the "post-Vasco da Gama era," "the coming of the post-Columbian epoch" and "the end of the Atlantic era." Similarly, the leading Singaporean intellectual, Kishore Mahbubani, has written of Asia's rise as carrying with it an "irresistible shift of global power of the east" which will transform the world. |
