The Rise of China (International Security Readers)
Analysts debate the international implications of a newly powerful China.China's relentless economic growth in the 1980s and 1990s heralded its emergence as a great power in world politics. As its economy expanded, China seemed poised to become the second-largest economy in the world. At the same time, it modernized its military and adopted a more assertive diplomatic posture. Many observers have begun to debate the international implications of China's rise. Some analysts argue that China will inevitably pose a threat to peace and security in East Asia. A few even predict a new cold war between Beijing and Washington. Others claim that a powerful China can remain benign. None believes that China can be ignored. The essays in this volume assess China's emerging capabilities and intentions, debate the impact that China will have on security in the Asia-Pacific region, and propose polices for the United States to adopt in its relations with China.

Solid material for anyone intersted in Chinese Foreign Polic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This collection of articles from International Security (an IR journal) has a good collection of solid articles about a topic of much dispute, the Rise of China. This is good material for a Chinese Foreign Policy class, although it maybe somewhat preoccupied with military affairs.
