Assessments of China’s importance on the world stage usually focus on a single dimension of China’s increasing power, rather than on the multiple sources of China’s rise, including its economic might and the continuing modernization of its military. This book offers multiple analytical perspectives—constructivist, liberal, neorealist—on the significance of the many dimensions of China’s regional and global influence.Distinguished authors consider the likelihood of conflict and peaceful accommodation as China grows ever stronger. They look at the changing position of China ‘from the inside’: How do Chinese policymakers evaluate the contemporary international order and what are the regional and global implications of that worldview? The authors also address the implications of China’s increasing power for Chinese policymaking and for the foreign policies of Korea, Japan, and the United States.
