Democratic governance is a critical element of the U.S. strategy to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific region. This CSIS report catalogues regional efforts to support democracy and recommends ways the United States can partner with like-minded countries in the region.

Enhancing Democratic Partnership in the Indo-Pacific Region

In this volume, a distinguished group of scholars examine the national experiences of six major twentieth-century powers-- the United States, Japan, Turkey, China, India and Germany—to discern the centuries’ legacies for today and the lessons for tomorrow. They explore core themes including anticolonialism, democracy, socialism, nationalism, industrialization, nuclear weapons, and globalization and provide their own personal interpretations of the century, as well as their respective nation’s experiences and historical memory of the era. Together, they provide a broad historical context of the forces that shaped the twentieth century that will be of interest to scholars and students of history as well as policymakers.
