The Middle East Tilt to Asia

Abstract

For three millennia, the attentions of the Middle East have swayed from East to West and back again as the region has shaped and been shaped by global political and economic trends. The current tilt toward Asia – which is already underway – is about both an energy-hungry Asia as well as Asia’s new strength in trade, technical capabilities and investment resources. Tony Nash will look at how Northeast Asian energy demands and outbound investment are changing the landscape and relationships in the region.
