Asia is a key region in global geopolitics and has been throughout the recorded history organised human society. It has also been a hotly contested area. The twenty-first century is no different in these respects. There is currently a massive global geopolitical transformation that is taking place, where power and influence of the unipolar Global North is in relative decline and the power and influence of the multipolar Global South is on the rise. The US has sought to contest their decline. This chapter analyses and examines Congressional Research Service reports on Asia from the year 2011, when Obama declared the Asia Pivot in US foreign policy. These reports, 72 in all, are interpreted using critical discourse analysis. The results reveal the continued relevance of the geostrategic imperatives for maintaining hegemony by Brzezinski in 1997, which is marked through the use of transactional and asymmetric interactions and outcomes with other international actors.
