Asia Security Project

CNP’s “The Asian Security Project” focuses the attention of the public and American policymakers on the region of the world that is home to the fastest growing economic and military powers on the planet. Whereas Europe enjoys a security structure that has contributed to peace on its continent for nearly two generations, Asia finds itself in a relative state of flux when it comes to its long-term balance of power among the region’s most powerful nations. The Asian Security Project fosters discussion, new ideas, and policy solutions that enhance understanding of and stability in the region.
