Produktbeschreibung
As the global balance of power shifts, the US-China relationship stands at the heart of the world s most pressing geopolitical questions. This book offers a fresh lens for understanding that relationship, spanning the dramatic arc from 1945 to 2020. Moving beyond the usual power-based explanations, it applies Role Theory to reveal how national self-conceptions how leaders see their country s place in the world shape both cooperation, conflict and order. From the battlefields of Korea to Nixon s historic handshake in Beijing, from post-Cold War accommodation to today s mounting tensions, the book uncovers the role-driven logic behind decades of US-China interactions. Drawing on leaders speeches and diplomatic exchanges, it highlights how domestic politics, regime type, and security ideas mould each nation s role on the global stage. Richly researched and sharply argued, this volume is essential reading for scholars, students, and policymakers seeking to grasp the forces redefining the Indo-Pacific order.
