| Summary/Abstract |
BY THE TURN OF THE CENTURY, the developing countries, or at least many of them, were demonstrating impressive economic dynamics which finally made them global political players. This shift of historic dimensions can be described as a great geopolitical and geoeconomic revolution and the most impressive features of international relations; it will extend into the next few decades, in the very least.
Asia, in the very heart of the process, demonstrates all these trends; the Asian countries are better described as pioneers ("forwards") and the main moving force. The scope and scale of its economic and political transformations and its strong and strengthening foreign policy positions cannot but amaze.
