A Conversation on the "Blue Pacific Identity" 🌏🌊

Asia In-Depth

Today’s geopolitical circumstance, defined by the rivalry between the United States and China, has redefined the dynamics of regional and global orders. This reality is palpable in the Pacific region, where the strategic interests of major powers and their allies intersect and undermine aspirations for a “united ocean of peace.”
In the latest episode of Asia Inside Out, host and ASPI Managing Director Rorry Daniels chats with Dame Meg Taylor, non-resident Distinguished Fellow for the Blue Pacific at ASPI, about the challenges Pacific-led regionalism faces as it grapples with this evolving external power dynamic alongside internal challenges of unity.

Asia Inside Out brings together our team and special guests to take you beyond the latest policy headlines and provide an insider’s view on regional and global affairs. Each month we’ll deliver an interview with informed experts, analysts, and decision-makers from across the Asia-Pacific region. If you want to dig into the details of how policy works, this is the podcast for you.
This podcast is produced by the Asia Society Policy Institute, a “think-and-do tank” working on the cutting edge of current policy trends by incorporating the best ideas from our experts and contributors into recommendations for policy makers to put these plans into practice.
