In The Problem of Asia, the celebrated American naval historian and strategist, Alfred Thayer Mahan, analyzes the geopolitical structure of world politics at the dawn of the twentieth century. Mahan wrote his book at a time when the United States was emerging as a world power, having recently acquired overseas territories as a result of its victory in the Spanish-American War. It was a call to America and its leaders to break with the intellectual tradition of Washingtons Farewell Address and to recognize that U.S. security was tied to the balance of power in Asia as well as Europe.

Mahan wrote his book at a time when the United States was emerging as a world power, having recently acquired overseas territories as a result of its victory in the Spanish-American War. It was a call to America and its leaders to break with the intellectual tradition of Washington's Farewell Address and to recognize that U.S. security was tied to the balance of power in Asia as well as Europe. For Mahan, the immediate "problem of Asia" was the threat of Russian expansion into Central Europe, Central Asia, East Asia,,and the Middle-East/Persian Gulf region. Mahan advocated an alliance consisting of Britain,. Japan, Germany, and the United States to counter the Russian threat. He also discussed the rise of Japan as a world power, the potential for China to emerge as a great power later in the twentieth century, and the increasing importance of the Middle East/Persian Gulf region to the global balance of power. The Problem of Asia contains geopolitical insights and analyses that remain relevant today. As recent events have reminded us, the world of the twenty-first century is still composed of nation-states and non-state actors that vigorously and sometimes brutally pursue their goals and self-interests. Mahan's approach in The Problem of Asia to the study and analysis of international politics in an anarchic world provides an important conceptual framework for understanding the fundamentals of global politics. This edition of Mahan's classic work includes a lengthy introduction by Francis P. Sempa that analyzes the book in the context of Mahan's life and other writings.

Not illustrated. 1900 edition. Excerpt: ... which may fairly be said to represent a policy realized in our past action, and to affirm it for the present and future. Our people have not now to evolve a policy, but to decide whether that of the past justifies itself to their conscience, to their sense of right and wrong, and embodies their purpose of the present. This still existent policy may, I apprehend, fairly be stated to be the determination to have equal commercial privileges, and withal to respect to the utmost the integrity of Chinese territory, and the individuality of the Chinese character in shaping its own government and polity. We meddle not with their national affairs until they become internationally unendurable. But in the very enunciation of this policy we are confronted by the fact that it is diverse from that of some other states, as shown by their acts in special instances, and plausibly to be inferred from their general course and obvious tendency. Such divergence is not always necessarily a cause for alarm, but it is for watchfulness; and it must be taken into account, as an element influential upon our own policy, not perhaps in general conception or as towards China, but in the matter of deciding upon the preparation we need, and the freehandedness to be maintained in external relations of lesser importance. Needless external preoccupations might greatly embarrass us, in case divergence from our policy should develop into opposition to our interests, or to those of civilization in general. Briefly, we cannot be sure of the commercial advantages known as the "open door," unless we are prepared to do our share in holding it open. We cannot count upon respect for the territory of China, unless we are ready to throw, not only our moral influence, but, if...

Excerpt from The Problem of Asia: A Lecture I have been requested by M. De W esselitsky, whom I have long known as the able and universally respected correspondent of the Novoe Vremya in London, to write a few lines of introduction to a lecture which he delivered lately on The Problem of Asia and I gladly comply with his request, because I believe his views are deserving of care ful attention. They may be accepted or rejected, but they should not be overlooked. We are at present entering on a new phase of what the Germans call and it is certain that in the political combinations of the near future Japan will be an important factor. Is that young vigorous State to be cordially received into the great family of the civilised nations, or is it to be regarded as a danger ous enemy of the family, so far as the Far East is con cerned P When we have dismissed as a harmless bogey the Yellow Peril in its original shape, we have still to examine it in other forms. Granted that there is no danger of Mongol Hordes overrunning and conquering Europe, is it not possible that a yellow race, by adopting the products of European civilisation, may Oppose successfully the aggres sive tendencies of the European nations in the Far East? In that case what attitude should these nations adopt? Should they combine to maintain by force of arms what they consider their civilising mission Or should they limit. Their pretensions in such a way as to leave room for the civilising activity of a young Oriental nationality which may some day raise the cry of Asia for the Asiatics The former course was adopted by Russia, France and Germany, when they compelled Japan to relinquish the conquests which she had made in Manchuria during her war with China, and when the present war is terminated the question will again come up for decision.
