Description

The 1955 Asian-African conference (the "Bandung Conference") was a meeting
of 29 Asian and African nations that sought to draw on Asian and African
nationalism and religious traditions to forge a new international order
that was neither communist nor capitalist. It led six years later to the
non-aligned movement. Few would dispute the notion that the inaugural
meeting in 1955 was a watershed in international history, but there is much
disagreement about its long-term legacy and its significance for present-
day international affairs. Determining the what, why and how of this
monumental event remains a challenge for students of the Conference and of
Third World international politics. Was it a post-colonial ideological
reaction to the passing of the age of empire or an innovative effort to
promote a new regionalism based on mutual goodwill and strong regional
ties? Were its principles of peaceful coexistence a rhetorical flourish or
a substantive policy initiative? Did the Conference help define North-South
relations? And in what way did the Conference contribute to the regional
order of contemporary Asia? -- Back cover.
