By providing a detailed account of the events in the SCS and by analyzing power dynamics in the region, it identifies the driving forces behind China’s assertive foreign policy. Considering China’s power on a domestic as well as an international level, it examines a number of different sources of hard and soft power, including military, economics, geopolitics, and domestic legitimacy. The author demonstrates that Chinese assertiveness in the SCS can be explained not only by increases in China’s power, but also by effective reactions to other actors’ foreign policy changes. The book will appeal to scholars in international relations, especially those interested in a better understanding of South China Sea developments, China’s political power and foreign policy, and East Asian international affairs.Global Power Shift,2198-7343International relationsAsia—Politics and governmentDiplomacyForeign Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912040Asian Politicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911110International Relations Theoryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912110Diplomacyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912020International relations.Asia—Politics and government.Diplomacy.Foreign Policy.Asian Politics.International Relations Theory.Diplomacy.341.4480916472Turcsányi Richard Qauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut980205MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300515903321Chinese Assertiveness in the South China Sea2235874UNINA
