The China Quandary Domestic Determinants Of U.s. China Policy 19721982

The China Quandary Domestic Determinants Of U.s. China Policy 19721982

Although the United States has established formal diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of China (PRC) achieving major advances in economic and cultural relations it continues to be bedevilled by serious dilemmas regarding such issues as future relations with Taiwan U. S. PRC military ties the extent and type of U. S. aid to China and the need for secrecy in U. S. China policy versus traditional American demands for open diplomacy. U. S. scholars have been clear about the international factors influencing current U. S. PRC relations; however the domestic political factors that have contributed in a major way to the creation of the dilemmas we face in formulating China policy today remain poorly understood. This book concentrates on these domestic determinants of recent U. S. China policy. Pointing to the compromises and contradictions in policy choices made by leaders who have sharply differing conceptions of the goals of policy and their appropriate implementation Dr. Sutter draws on a wide array of recent U. S. government publications and more than one hundred interviews with officials of the Carter and Reagan administrations and Congress to examine differences in views divergencies in policy approaches and the confusion that results. He specifically treats key issues such as the Taiwan Relations Act and possible U. S. arms sales to China as well as summarizing and assessing domestic and foreign policy interests of the United States in relation to China and offering policy options for the problems that lie ahead. | The China Quandary Domestic Determinants Of U. s.

Arbitration Concerning the South China Sea Philippines versus China

Arbitration Concerning the South China Sea Philippines versus China

On 22 January 2013 the Republic of the Philippines instituted arbitral proceedings against the People’s Republic of China (PRC) under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) with regard to disputes between the two countries in the South China Sea. The South China Sea Arbitration is a landmark case in international law because of the parties involved the legal questions to be decided and the absence of one of the parties. As revealed in its official statements the PRC will neither accept nor participate in this arbitration nor present written and oral arguments in the tribunal room. Such default of appearance makes applicable certain procedural rules. According to Article 9 of Annex VII the Tribunal before making its Award is obligated to satisfy itself not only that it has jurisdiction over the dispute but also that the claims brought by the Philippines are well-founded in fact and law. Therefore it is necessary for the Tribunal to look into all the claims brought forward by the Philippines and all the disputes constituted by the claims in the procedural phase. The possible arguments the PRC could make should be explored during this process. This book brings together chapters selected from well-established scholars in Asia Europe and North America addressing the issues arising from the South China Sea Arbitration. It contains five easy to read parts: origin and development of the South China Sea dispute; the jurisdiction and admissibility of the case; international adjudication and dispute settlement; legal issues arising from the case such as the legal status of the U-shaped line and islands rocks and low-tide elevations; and the Arbitration case and its impact on regional maritime security. | Arbitration Concerning the South China Sea Philippines versus China

The Problem of China

The Problem of China

'China by her resources and her population is capable of being the greatest power in the world after the United States. ' Bertrand Russell The Problem of China In 1920 the philosopher Bertrand Russell spent a year in China as Professor of Philosophy at the University of Beijing (then Peking) where his lectures on mathematical logic enthralled students and listeners including Mao Tse Tung who attended some of Russell’s talks. Written at a time when China was largely regarded by the West as backward and weak The Problem of China sees Russell rise above the prejudices of his era and presciently assess China's past present and future. Russell brings his analytical and insightful eye to bear on some fundamental aspects of China’s history and politics cautioning China against adopting a purely Western model of social and economic development which he regarded as characterized by a combination of greed and militarism. Beginning with an overview of nineteenth-century Chinese history and considering China's relations with Japan and Russia Russell then contrasts Chinese civilization with Western. He devotes a fascinating chapter to the character of the Chinese which he argues is complex but ultimately defined by a ‘pacific temper’. With uncanny foresight Russell predicts China’s resurgence but only if it is able to establish an orderly government promote industrial development under Chinese control and foster the spread of education. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new introduction by Bernard Linsky.
