摘要

This document consists of a collection of papers generated by the work in progress of our study, Value of Maritime 1tade in Southeast Asia. This project for N51 examines the economic value of maritime trade through the Southeast Asian straits, given the USN mission to ensure passage through these crucial waterways. The purpose of this document is to acquaint our colleagues with our efforts so they can participate in and contribute to our discussions and help improve the final result. This overview simply introduces the reader to the collection of working papers. First, we offer a few paragraphs on the motivation for our investigations, after which we give a brief summary of our approach. Second, we list the working documents of the appendixes, describing how they originated as the study progressed. Finally, we attach the collection of presentations, memos, and planning documents that currently make up the study's paper trail.
