This balanced and deeply informed book provides a comprehensive
account of China's Asia policy since the Cold War. Lowell Dittmer
traces the PRC's policy toward its Asian neighbors in the context
of the country's move from a developing nation to a great power,
capable of playing a role in world politics commensurate with its
remarkable economic rise. The author considers China's bilateral
relations with Russia, Central Asia, South and Southeast Asia, and
Australia. Each of these relationships is also viewed in terms of
China's rivalry with the United States, which has viewed China's
rise with admiration tinged with a certain foreboding. Thus,
Dittmer employs a triangular analysis to understand Beijing's
attempt to expand in Asia while at the same time deterring
Washington's interference. Reframing the international relations of
Asia in a thought-provoking and informed manner, this important
book presents a panoramic view of the dynamics at work on all sides
of China.
