Research and Publications
An
active research faculty conducts research and writing about Asia-Pacific
security issues in support of the Center’s mission. These specialists,
working in their areas of expertise, analyze middle- to long-range
Asia-Pacific security issues and their potential implications for the United
States. The publications aim to advance the regional discourse on security,
and to provide useful analysis and information for the U.S. policy-making
community, as well as for security analysts and practitioners in other Asia-Pacific
countries. The publications program also supports the philosophy and mission
of the Center by: enriching the curriculum, continuing alumni education, and
creating exchange opportunities with counterpart institutions and libraries
throughout the region.
The
publications program comprises of three types of publications. . The Asia-Pacific
Security Studies series presents 3,500 word analyses that address
mid-term, security-related issues and developments of policy relevance. The Occasional
Papers series presents 6,000 to 7,000 word assessments of longer-term
security issues in the region, and reflects significant research efforts.
Finally, the Asia-Pacific Center Monographs series presents 100 to 200
page monographs on key issues in regional security. Monographs are expected
to be notable contributions to the field of Asia-Pacific security. Also in
the monograph series are edited volumes emanating from APCSS research
collaborations and conferences.

Visiting Researchers
To
promote an exchange of views on security issues between APCSS faculty and
specialists from throughout the region, the Research and Publications
Division regularly hosts visiting researchers for one to three months and a
distinguished visiting researcher for up to one year. The visiting researchers make an important
contribution to the Center in two ways: first, they provide occasional papers
or other deliverables on relevant issues.
Second, as most visiting researchers are from the Asia-Pacific region,
they are able to provide in-house expertise regarding Asia-Pacific approaches
and opinions on security issues. Selection is based on a favorable match
between the visiting researcher’s interests and background and current needs
of APCSS. Potential applicants may
contact the Director of Research and Publications for more information.
