Problems of the Pacific by Frank Fox explores the geopolitical significance of the Pacific Ocean as the emerging center of evolving power dynamics. The text delves into the historical and contemporary roles of various nations, particularly focusing on the strategic interests and changes of major powers such as Russia, Japan, China, the United States, and Great Britain. Fox argues that the Pacific is poised to become the stage for the next major struggle for world supremacy, driven by the shifts of both the White and Yellow races. The book examines the historical context of Russian expansion towards the Pacific, highlighting the transformation of European fears and the eventual check on Russian ambitions by Japan. Japan's rise as a formidable power is attributed to its rapid adoption of Western military and industrial practices, culminating in its victory over Russia and its strategic alliance with Great Britain. The text also considers the potential of China to emerge as a significant force in the Pacific, given its vast population and ongoing progress towards modernity. Fox emphasizes the importance of naval and military power, population growth, industrial development, and strategic alliances in determining the future balance of power in the Pacific. The possibility of an Anglo-Celtic alliance between Great Britain and the United States is presented as a potential solution to securing dominance in the region, though challenges to such a partnership are acknowledged. Overall, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the strategic considerations and rivalries that define the Pacific as the ocean of the future.
