Asian Studies CentreIs the 21st Century Asia's?NB: The first minutes of the presentation were not recorded. Professor Danny Quah speaks at the International Politics of East Asia Seminar Many writers have noted how the international system might be on the cusp of a change, where the "America Century" will no longer describe world order.

Moreover, the conventional narrative ascribes to the established system intangible attributes such as soft power that are difficult to dislodge.
