China’s Regional Relations in Comparative Perspective : From Harmonious Neighbors to Strategic Partners Paperback / softback
by Steven F. (Indiana University of Pennsylvania) Jackson
Part of the Rethinking Asia and International Relations series
Paperback / softback
Description
China’s relations with its neighbors have evolved since 1949, and in the 21st century many scholars argue that China’s rising power has led it to be increasingly domineering over those smaller countries in Northeast, Southeast, Central, and South Asia.
The evolution of China’s regional relations needs to be examined comprehensively, since China counts twenty-seven countries as its "neighbors" large and small.
While China’s official policy toward all of these countries is to treat them as "good neighbors" and "partners," some of these relationships have been spectacularly deteriorating, while others have been quietly improving over the last two decades.
Jackson takes a comparative foreign policy approach, and compares China’s status as a regional hegemon with the United States, Russia, India, Brazil, South Africa and Nigeria.
The result is a broader theory as to why regional powers are sometimes intimidating and at other times accommodating.
An important contribution to studies on China, this book will prove useful to scholars and students in Chinese and Asian foreign policy, comparative foreign policy, and international relations.
