This book explores China's strategic culture in the context of relations across the Taiwan Strait.
The USA has long played a stabilising role, deterring China from attacking Taiwan.

Produktbeschreibung
This book explores China's strategic culture in the context of relations across the Taiwan Strait.

The USA has long played a stabilising role, deterring China from attacking Taiwan. However, as China's economy has grown, so has its military might, and it is now in a position to challenge America for the leading role in the security of the Western Pacific. This book closely examines how China's interests in Taiwan have emerged from its identity as a modern, socialist nation- state, placing it on a collision course with Taiwan's consolidated liberal democracy and the US vision of itself as a guarantor of global order. On the basis of an examination of operational doctrines, force structure and training, it offers an interpretation of the three powers' intentions and analyses possible scenarios for conflict. This provides the context for analysing China's strategic behaviour, notably the development over the past 30 years of military capabilities which would be sufficient for an invasion.

This book will be of much interest to students of strategic culture, Chinese security, foreign policy and international relations.

Rezensionen
'China's strategic ambitions regarding Taiwan are pursued with a strategic culture that is revisionist and offensive, obsessed with unification, and has an outstanding capacity for patience. I urge all practitioners to read this excellent analysis by two leading China experts, and to heed its predictions!'

Beatrice Heuser, Distinguished Professor, CSDS, Brussels School of Governance, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium

'Using a strategic culture lens, Neil Munro and Duanyi Yi shine new light on the tripwires surrounding PRC, US, and Taiwanese action that may tip their colliding agendas into a century-defining conflict. Imperative reading for scholars and policymakers alike.'

Jeannie Johnson, Director of the Center for Anticipatory Intelligence, Utah State University, USA
