Asia, the Pacific Islands and the coasts of the Americas have long been studied separately. This essential single-volume history of the Pacific traces the global interactions and remarkable peoples that have connected these regions with each other and with Europe and the Indian Ocean, for millennia. From ancient canoe navigators, monumental civilisations, pirates and seaborne empires, to the rise of nuclear testing and global warming, Matt Matsuda ranges across the frontiers of colonial history, anthropology and Pacific Rim economics and politics, piecing together a history of the region. The book identifies and draws together the defining threads and extraordinary personal narratives which have contributed to this history, showing how localised contacts and contests have often blossomed into global struggles over colonialism, tourism and the rise of Asian economies. Drawing on Asian, Oceanian, European, American, ancient and modern narratives, the author assembles a fascinating Pacific region from a truly global perspective.

The 2012 Economic and Social Survey of Asia and the Pacific examines the region's economic prospects amidst global financial turbulence and high commodity prices. It highlights the challenges posed by inflation, slackening export demand, and volatile commodity prices, while emphasizing Asia-Pacific's role as a global growth engine. The survey proposes policies to enhance domestic demand and promote inclusive growth, particularly benefiting the poor. Aimed at policymakers and governments, the survey serves as a resource for achieving resilient and sustainable development. It underscores the importance of regional cooperation and the potential of South-South trade to mitigate reliance on low-growth developed economies.
