China’s Soft Power Projection in the Middle East—North Africa
This paper analyzes China’s expanding soft power strategy in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). It explores how Beijing shapes regional perceptions through education, language promotion, media cooperation, and cultural initiatives. Using qualitative analysis of policy documents, official speeches, and regional reporting, the study identifies the main tools and audiences of China’s efforts. Findings show that China’s approach is highly state…
Navigating asymmetry in the Indian Ocean region
This paper analyzes the options available to small states in the Indian Ocean region (IOR) in an era of great power competition, using the case of Oman's engagement with the strategic triangle of the United States, India, and China. Motivated primarily by concerns at the domestic and regional levels, Omani decision makers perceive good relations with each of the three powers to be important in addressing their most pressing concerns and have ther…
Gulf states and the Indo-Pacific
Asian Perceptions of Gulf Security
While the 'Asianisation of Asia' continues to spread roots and deepen pan-Asian relations along the axes of energy cooperation, security partnership, trade and investment, and people-to-people exchanges, little concrete and theoretically informed attention has been paid to wider Asian perceptions of West Asia.This magnificent volume is rectifying this and has given us a detailed and well-informed understanding of the key Asian countries' relation…
Systemic Change and Regional Orders
The Persian Gulf regional security complex is shaped by intense competition between regional states and, since the aftermath of Operation Desert Storm, US military preponderance. US security cooperation with the Gulf Cooperation Council member states has sustained a status quo that has allowed extra-regional countries to advance their interests without making significant contributions to regional stability. An examination of the presence of five …
The China-Iran Comprehensive Strategic Partnership
The China-Iran comprehensive strategic partnership (CSP) has been described as a potentially disruptive alignment. This article analyses the impact of the CSP in two regional security complexes (RSCs): the Persian Gulf and South Asia. It finds that of the two RSCs, the China-Iran CSP has a greater likelihood of affecting the strategic landscape of the South Asian RSC as China seeks to contain India's power and influence. In the Persian Gulf, Chin…
Routledge Handbook on China–middle East Relations
"This handbook brings together a mix of established and emerging international scholars to provide valuable analytical insights as to how China's growing Middle East presence affects intra-regional development, trade, security, and diplomacy. As the largest extra-regional economic actor in the Middle East, China is the biggest source of foreign direct investment into the region and the largest trading partner for most Middle Eastern states. This …
China between Iran and the Gulf Monarchies
China's deepening ties to Iran, evident in the comprehensive strategic partnership (CSP) signed in 2021 after five years of stalled progress, is not an indication of a revisionist Chinese approach to the Gulf region. In fact, its CSPs with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, already activated and implemented, are at far more mature levels, commensurate with China's deep levels of economic and political engagement with the Arab side of the …
UAE-Israel diplomatic normalization
The announcement of normalized diplomatic relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a significant event in Middle East international politics, marking the first new regional partnership for Israel since Jordan in 1994. This paper uses a levels of analysis approach to examine the domestic, regional, and systemic pressures that influenced leaders in the two countries to make this bold decision. It argues that the pressures at t…

China-Saudi Arabia Relations Through the ‘1 + 2+3’ Cooperation Pattern
2020 marks the 30th anniversary of China-Saudi Arabia diplomatic relations, and over this time the relationship has evolved from one of marginal significance to a comprehensive strategic partnership. As China’s role in the Middle East expands, the partnership with Saudi Arabia will increase in importance. This article analyses the bilateral relationship by using the ‘1 + 2 + 3’ cooperation pattern as a framework. Introduced during the 2014 China-…
Regions in the Belt and Road Initiative
Implications of a regional order in flux
The transition away from post-Cold War unipolarity has repercussions for regional orders that have been shaped and sustained by US preponderance. Small states like the United Arab Emirates (UAE), traditionally reliant upon extra-regional powers to balance against more powerful neighbours, are adopting an increasingly muscular foreign policy to hedge against a possible reduced US regional role. Consequently, there is an opening for non-traditional…
Situating Saudi Arabia in China's Belt and Road Initiative
Saudi Arabia's geostrategic location and role as a Middle East regional power, combined with its ambitious Saudi Vision 2030 development plan, make it an important Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) partner for China, which has become Saudi Arabia's largest trading partner. Despite mutual interests, the role of the United States as the dominant power in the Persian Gulf region means that the Sino‐Saudi Arabia relationship must be managed in such a wa…
China-UAE Relations in the Belt and Road Era
In the summer of 2018 China and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) upgraded their bilateral relationship to a comprehensive strategic partnership, China’s highest level of diplomatic relations. This follows a trajectory of deepening multifaceted ties that has been steadily becoming strategically important for both states, especially as China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), launched in 2013, results in deeper engagement in the Middle East. This arti…
Domestic Politics as Fuel for China’s Maritime Silk Road Initiative
China’s involvement with the Gulf monarchies has been built upon an economic foundation. With the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the Maritime Silk Road Initiative (MSRI) this has expanded, as the Gulf monarchies see cooperation with China through MSRI projects as a means of advancing economic development programs necessary to move beyond single-resource rentier economies and relationships with external powers as a means of ensuring their secu…
China’s Relations with the Gulf Monarchies
As China’s international political role grows, its relations with states outside of its traditional sphere of interests is evolving. This is certainly the case of the Gulf monarchies of Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, which together comprise the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). China’s levels of interdependence with these states has increased dramatically in recent years, spanning a wide range of interests…
External Powers and the Gulf Monarchies

Troubled waters
Mehran Kamrava opens Troubled waters with a big question: ‘Why is the Persian Gulf so chronically insecure?’ (p. 1). It does not give away too much to say that, by the end of the book, readers will harbour little hope that this chronic condition will change in the foreseeable future. While there is a deep and broad literature on security issues in the Gulf, Kamrava's book provides fresh insights on an old puzzle by focusing on the period since th…

Like the previous books, the current volume includes contributions from an impressive group of scholars, working on Chinese political science and law. While recent years have seen a wealth of books dealing with China's…

When More Gets You Less
Researchers offer concurrent Web options in mail surveys in hopes of improving response rates. However, existing literature reports mixed effects of doing so. This paper utilizes meta-analytic methods to evaluate the effect that offering a concurrent Web option in a mail survey has on the response rate. Across nineteen experimental comparisons, we find that mail surveys that incorporate a concurrent Web option have significantly lower response ra…

Religion and Politics in Gramsci
Little has been printed in English on Gramsci's sociology of religion, despite considerable work done in European languages, particularly Italian. Yet Gramsci wrote extensively on the subject as well as on the link of religion to hegemony, the best known of his concepts. The main aim of the article is to supply English readers with an introduction to the topic. This is done with direct reference to Gramsci's writings, particularly The Prison Note…
