China's Future

Michael Yahuda

As the world's most dynamic region, Asia embodies explosive economic growth, diverse political systems, vibrant societies, modernizing militaries, cutting-edge technologies, rich cultural traditions amid globalization, and strategic competition among major powers. As a result, international relations in Asia are evolving rapidly. In this fully updated and expanded volume, leading scholars from Asia, Europe, and North America offer the most current and definitive analysis available of Asia's regional relationships. They set developments in Asia in theoretical context, assess the role of leading external and regional powers, and consider the importance of subregional actors and linkages. Combining interpretive richness and factual depth, their essays provide an authoritative and stimulating overview. Students of contemporary Asian affairs new to the field and old hands alike will find this book an invaluable read. Contributions by: Amitav Acharya, Sebastian Bersick, Nayan Chanda, Ralph A. Cossa, Michael Green, Samuel S. Kim, Edward J. Lincoln, Martha Brill Olcott, T.V. Paul, Phillip C. Saunders, David Shambaugh, Sheldon W.

Making China Policy

Relations between China and Europe have fluctuated since 1949. This study attempts to trace the ups and downs in that course and aims to identify the major factors at play in the Sino-European relationship during the period 1949 to 1995. Today, China and the member nations of the European Union have many common interests in economics and trade, and the end of the Cold War has afforded them the opportunity to know each other better and develop relations more independently. This common knowledge is vital for the mutual peace and prosperity of both regions.
