Managing the China Challenge: Global Perspective
co-editor (with Guoli Liu). New York and London: Routledge, 2008. xii, 261pp.
This edited volume addresses one of the most significant
issues in international strategic studies today: how to meet
the challenge of a rising China?
The contributors take a global view of the topic, offering
unique and often controversial perspectives on the nature of
the China challenge. The book approaches the subject from
a variety of angles, including realist, offensive realist,
institutional, power transition, interdependence, and
constructivist perspectives. Chapters explore such issues as
the US response to the China challenge, Japan’s shifting
strategy toward a rising China, EU-China relations, China’s
strategic partnership with Russia and India, and the
implications of "unipolarity" for China, the US and the world.
In doing so, the volume offers insights into some of the key
questions surrounding China’s grand strategy and its
potential effects on to the existing international order.
