Why do rising powers sometimes challenge an international order
that enables their growth, and at other times support an order that
constrains them? Ascending Order offers the first comprehensive
study of conflict and cooperation as new powers join the global
arena. International institutions shape the choices of rising
states as they pursue equal status with established powers. Open
membership rules and fair decision-making procedures facilitate
equality and cooperation, while exclusion and unfairness frequently
produce conflict. Using original and robust archival evidence, the
book examines these dynamics in three cases: the United States and
the maritime laws of war in the mid-nineteenth century; Japan and
naval arms control in the interwar period; and India and nuclear
non-proliferation in the Cold War. This study shows that the future
of contemporary international order depends on the ability of
international institutions to address the status ambitions of
rising powers such as China and India.
