Is China's rise a threat to international order? Fractured China
shows that it depends on what one means by 'China', for China is
not the monolithic, unitary actor that many assume. Forty years of
state transformation - the fragmentation, decentralisation and
internationalisation of party-state apparatuses - have profoundly
changed how its foreign policy is made and implemented. Today,
Chinese behaviour abroad is often not the product of a coherent
grand strategy, but results from a sometimes-chaotic struggle for
power and resources among contending politico-business interests,
within a surprisingly permissive Chinese-style regulatory state.
Presenting a path-breaking new analytical framework, Fractured
China transforms the central debate in International Relations and
provides new tools for scholars and policymakers seeking to
understand and respond to twenty-first century rising powers.
Drawing on extensive fieldwork in China and Southeast Asia, it
includes three major case studies - the South China Sea,
non-traditional security cooperation, and development financing-to
demonstrate the framework's explanatory power.
