Dr. Amitav Acharya will examine the broader implications of
September 11 and the U.S. strike on the Taliban for the security
of Asia, especially East Asia. Governments in the region face
a challenge in dealing with the consequences of September 11
and with their anti-terrorist policies for state-society relations.
The war against terrorism is defining the concept of security
and rekindling a debate about the merits of democracy vis-à-vis
authoritarianism. At stake are the stability of multi-ethnic
societies and the future of democratic governance in the region.
