This title was first published in 2001. The challenges that face the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) have changed considerably. Growing international interdependence has meant that domestic civil servants are playing an increasing role in international negotiations and foreign policy making. The scope and complexity of foreign policy under conditions of interdependence has pushed FCO involvement beyond its normal boundaries and into areas that have traditionally been the preserve of domestic policy-makers. In this book, Roger Murphy assesses the success of the FCO in dealing with these challenges, providing an examination of the changes that have taken place in the British foreign policy making system.

This edited book examines the contemporary regional security concerns in the Asia-Pacific recognizing the ‘Butterfly effect’, the concept that small causes can have large effects: ‘the flap of a butterfly’s wings can cause a typhoon halfway around the world’. For many Asia-Pacific states, domestic security challenges are at least as important as external security considerations. Recent events (both natural disasters and man-made disasters) have pointed to the inherent physical, economic, social and political vulnerabilities that exist in the region. Both black swan events and persistent threats to security characterize the challenges within the Asia-Pacific region. Transnational security challenges such as global climate change, environmental degradation, pandemics, energy security, supply chain security, resource scarcity, terrorism and organized crime are shaping the security landscape regionally and globally. The significance of emerging transnational security challenges in the Asia-Pacific Region impact globally and conversely, security developments in those other regions affect the Asia-Pacific region.

Non-Traditional Security in Asia examines the critical security challenges faced by states and societies in Asia including health, food, water, natural disasters, internal conflict, forced migration, energy, transnational crime, and cyber security. Through the development of a comprehensive analytical framework that establishes the key ingredients to policy evaluation, the editors draw on a wide variety of experts to collaborate in investigating these crucial issues. This inclusive framework ensures that all voices are heard including those oftentimes under-represented and marginalized in society to ensure that academic and policy debates are well informed about the often complex and nuanced nature of these non-traditional security challenges. Through an investigation into these specific non-traditional security threats, Non-Traditional Security in Asia documents and evaluates many of the most pressing challenges faced by Asia today. The authors analyse the ways in which particular issues are addressed by the many stakeholders involved in the policy-making process, both within governments and across societies. The question of how these challenges are addressed across and between the different levels of global governance highlights the strengths and weakness that are directly attributable to policy successes and failures. It is through this layered and comprehensive approach, together with an evaluation of the role of stakeholders, which binds together the chapter contributions to this collection. The book undertakes an issue-specific chapter study of how Asian states and societies address these non-traditional security concerns from environmental adaptation and mitigation measures to conflict resolution. For each issue area, it identifies and explains the concerns of various policy communities, identifying the motivations behind some of the key decisions made to affect change or stabilize the status quo. Essentially it questions not only what a security issue is but also for whom the issue is important and the interaction this has with policy outcomes. With a focus on regional and global institutions as well as national and local ones, this collection illustrates the variety of stakeholders involved in non-traditional security concerns, and reflects on their relative importance in the decision-making process. Through a systematic evaluation of these non-traditional security issues by employing a comprehensive analytical framework, critical appreciation of the dynamics of the policy-making process surrounding issues of crucial national, regional and international significance in Asia are made. As a result of sharing these insights, the contributors provide the tools as well as a selection of issue-specific stakeholders to illuminate the key but complex characteristics of non-traditional security in Asia.

Peter Ho, former Head of the Singapore Civil Service, was the Institute of Policy Studies' 2016/17 S R Nathan Fellow for the Study of Singapore.This book collects the four IPS-Nathan Lectures that he delivered between April and May 2017, and gathers highlights of his dialogues with the audience.Ho surveys the increasingly complex world, and suggests what governments can do to prepare for the future — even as no one can predict it. He uses metaphors such as the 'black elephant' and concepts like the 'dialectic of governance' to explain how a systematic approach to thinking about the future can help countries in general — and Singapore in particular — build resilience and develop a comparative advantage in the face of uncertainty and rapid change.The IPS-Nathan Lectures series was launched in 2014 as part of the S R Nathan Fellowship for the Study of Singapore. Its primary goal is to promote public understanding and discourse of issues of critical national interest.

This book has aptly been described as the "Encyclopaedia of Knowledge"- the knowledge to tackle the most pressing challenges of life. It must be acknowledged from the outset that no single book can solve every problem. Such a book would be several thousand pages and the sheer volume and complexity could actually defeat the purpose by driving potential readers away.In order to overcome such difficulties, the author has concentrated on the most common and important challenges in life: 1.Financial problems are some of the most devastating challenges to befall anyone. It includes how to get a job, maintain it, severe financial difficulties-what to do and what not to do. It emphasises prevention which is better than cure in all circumstances. In fact, the solution to this problem may be just around the corner whilst you have been running from pillar to post. This book tells you how to find it and how to prevent, avoid and deal with this very perplexing challenge with examples. If you seriously want to overcome financial challenges, then read this book and apply the principles and practice.Some people simply think that they can sit down and fold their arms and money will somehow come to them. Others choose to apply some of the get-rich-quick schemes other than start a business or apply and get a good job. There are many others also who resort to making friends with those they consider rich, in the Social Media, such as in Face Book and begging for money. This has become a way of life for them but for how long can such lifestyle be sustained?.This book gives you the tips on how to start your own business and ensure the free flow of customers, without which the business is bound to fail. There are very few easy ways in life. Most people have to work very hard to succeed; you should be aiming to do that. Read this book and see how it can be done, in particular how to drive customer traffic to your business. This is one of the most important factors in the success of any venture. 2. Relationships problems are perhaps some of the worst challenges to deal with. For the first time, this author provides a solution to one of the most burning and heart- breaking relationship problems: how to get someone to marry when all hope is lost. Even if you did not intend to read this book fully, you should at least, read this chapter and see how your life could be transformed. There are millions of people who have this perplexing challenge and simply keep it to themselves, weep all night, get up in the morning and present a brave face to the world. They have been having one heart-breaking disappointment after the other which has resulted in a vicious circle with no solution in sight. Often their biological clock is ticking; they are restless, anxious and have no one to turn to. They have been through hell and back, have had the most devastating disappointments; severely mentally scarred and find it difficult to confide in or trust anyone. This author has given a step by step solution that will amaze you and make you wonder why you didn't realise and apply it long before now. Fortunately, it's never too late. The sooner you embrace this method, the better. The author has given examples of very successful outcomes by applying this method. The question of how to maintain a relationship and marriage have been brought to the fore. Infertility and how to deal with it in a manner you never thought possible has been emphasised. The author has also dealt with the complex issues of separation and divorce and how they can be prevented if possible as well as how divorce is best handled when all hope of reconciliation is gone.

From pirates to smugglers, migrants to hackers, from stolen fish to smuggled drugs, the sea is becoming a place of increasing importance on the global agenda as criminals use it as a theatre to conduct their crimes unfettered. This volume sets out to provide an introduction to the key issues of pertinence in Maritime Security today. It demonstrates why the sea is a space of great strategic importance, and how threats to security at sea have a real impact for people around the world. It examines an array of challenges and threats to security playing out at sea, including illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, irregular migration, piracy, smuggling of illicit goods, and cyber security, while also looking at some of the mechanism and role-players involved in addressing these perils. Each chapter provides an overview of the issue it discusses and provides a brief case study to illustrate how this issue is playing out in real-life. This book thus allows readers an insight into this evolving multidisciplinary field of study. As such, it makes for an informative read for academics and practitioners alike, as well as policymakers and students, offering a well-rounded introduction of the main issues in current Maritime Security.
