This book presents a comprehensive analysis of Asia’s development through the lens of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), integrating both policy performance and geopolitical realities. Using the Jadhav SDG Geopolitics Matrix (JSGM), it evaluates how factors such as debt structures, great power competition, governance, and climate risk shape national progress across fifteen Asian countries. By combining data-driven assessment with strategic insights, the work highlights the limitations of traditional SDG evaluations and proposes a more realistic framework for understanding development in a complex global order.
