Lu Ning, former assistant to a vice-foreign minister of China,
draws on archival materials, interviews, and personal experiences,
to provide unique insights into the formal and informal structures,
processes, mechanisms, and dynamics of--and key players
in--foreign-policy decisionmaking in Beijing. Lu Ning sheds light
on controversial decisions that were made, such as China's entering
the Korean War, selling DF-3 missiles to Saudi Arabia in 1986, and
cooperating with the Israeli defense establishment.Lu Ning divulges
the inner workings of Beijing's foreign ministry, introduces new
Chinese language sources, and presents a series of case studies
that challenge existing Western theoretical analysis of Chinese
policymaking. Based on his examination of the past forty years, Lu
Ning makes predictions about likely changes in Beijing's leadership
and in its foreign-policy decisionmaking process. This accessibly
written, incisive book will be invaluable to anyone interested in
Sinology, Chinese foreign policy, comparative foreign policy, and
contemporary international relations of East Asia.This second
edition contains a fully revised Introduction, and it has been
updated through President Clinton's recent visit to China. The new
edition also contains new material on the Clinton Administration's
varying policy positions toward China.
