Like all collaborative projects, this book would not have been possible without the assistance of friends and colleagues. In addition to the original workshop participants whose chapters appear here, a number of other people deserve particular mention and thanks.
Russell Trood in his capacity as head of The Centre for the Study of AustraliaAsia Relations (CSAAR), provided the initial encouragement and just as importantly financial support, for this project. Additional financial support was provided by the Griffith Asia Pacific Council, and the Australian Key Centre for Cultural and Media Policy.
Painstaking editorial and technical assistance was provided by Maureen Todhunter and Robyn White respectively. The original workshop from which this collection emerged was an enjoyable and painless affair thanks to the energy and organisational prowess of Katherine Myres.
The encouragement and prompt attention of Peter Sowden of Curzon Press throughout the project, and his forbearance in the face of unavoidable delays was greatly appreciated.
Finally, thanks to Amitav Acharya, Stephen Bell, Bill Case, Bob Elson, and Ian Holliday, whose comments and contributions added greatly to the entire enterprise.
