Abstract:

One of the most striking aspects of the proposition that the US should reduce its military involvement in Asia is that almost nobody disagrees with the idea. Endorsement ranges from the President and his Cabinet to the leaders of the communist nations. In the US, public and political spokesmen of all partisan shadings also give their support, and many Americans regard a reduction of defense deployments in the Asia-Pacific region as the essential key toward reducing overall defense costs.
