Asia’s New Geopolitics: A Conversation with Michael R. Auslin and Robert D. Kaplan

About the Event

FPRI Senior Fellow Michael R. Auslin and FPRI Robert Strausz-Hupé Chair in Geopolitics Robert D. Kaplan will discuss Dr. Auslin's new book, Asia’s New Geopolitics: Essays on Reshaping the Indo-Pacific, which examines key issues transforming the Indo-Pacific and the broader world, including the history of American strategy in Asia, from the eighteenth century through today. Taken together, Auslin’s essays convey the richness and diversity of the region: with more than three billion people, the Indo-Pacific contains over half of the global population, including the world’s two most populous nations, India and China. 

Michael R. Auslin is a Senior Fellow at FPRI. He is the Payson J. Treat Distinguished Research Fellow in Contemporary Asia at Stanford's Hoover Institution and was an associate professor of history at Yale University. Among his previous books is the best-selling The End of the Asian Century: War, Stagnation, and the Risks to the World's Most Dynamic Region.

 Robert D. Kaplan is the Robert Strausz-Hupé Chair in Geopolitics at FPRI. He is the best-selling author of nineteen books on foreign affairs and has twice been named one of the world's "Top 100 Global Thinkers" by Foreign Policy Magazine. His new book, The Good American: The Epic Life of Bob Gersony, the U.S. Government's Greatest Humanitarian will be published this coming October.
