Abstract
The Indo-Pacific region has been at the centre of competition between different world powers, being the hub of interaction between state and non-state actors from time immemorial. It is a geopolitical area that spans the Indian and the Pacific Oceans, stretching from the west coast of the US to the west coast of India and beyond. It comprises a 24-nation regional framework taking in the tropical waters of the Indian Ocean, the western and central Pacific Ocean, and the seas connecting the two in the general area of Indonesia. The Indo-Pacific region plays an important role in the economic, social and political life of its littoral countries, and the interest of major powers. Since 2011, the term Indo-Pacific has been used increasingly in the global strategic/geopolitical discourse; and, as a framework, the Indo-Pacific is expected to create a connected multipolar region that must be governed by commonly agreed international norms, rules, and practices.

Founded in 1910, The Round Table, Britain"s oldest international affairs journal, provides analysis and commentary on all aspects of international affairs. The journal is the major source for coverage of policy issues concerning the contemporary Commonwealth and its role in international affairs, with occasional articles on themes of historical interest. The Round Table has for many years been a repository of informed scholarship, opinion, and judgement regarding both international relations in general, and the Commonwealth in particular, with authorship and readership drawn from the worlds of government, business, finance and academe.
