This book's main objective is to determine what role, if any, the
Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) plays in de-escalating
tensions among its members. It argues that the SCO is uniquely
suited to keep its disparate members, many of whom have border
disputes with each other, from escalating tensions among
themselves. The book proposes a rivalry de-escalation model that
differs from the standard belief that rivalries de-escalate due to
a shock or external pressure. This model states that trust can be
built between two rival states when confidence-building measures
are instilled and utilized repeatedly over a long period of time.
The SCO provides these mechanisms in the form of annual summits
between state leaders and routine military exercises involving
military units from every member. Examining three case studies
involving the founding six members of the organization, the book
argues that the SCO is effective in keeping rivalries de-escalated
among its members. This book will be of much interest to students
of Asian politics, regional security and International Relations.
