  • Confronting the Bush Doctrine: Critical Views from the Asia-Pacific

    R Tanter, Melvin Gurtov et al.BOOKConfronting the Bush doctrine2004

    The effects and reception of the Bush Doctrine in Japan have to be seen in the light of a long drawn out and now quickening series of domestic legal, political, legislative, and equipment and force-structure changes in Japanese security policy. The Bush Doctrine has been welcomed for the opportunities it affords to accelerate already existing planning preferences for military expansion and the re-constitution of the Japanese state in a "normal" f…

    Eugene R Wittkopf, Melvin GurtovREVIEWHispanic American Historical Review1975

    In Europe after World War II, U.S. economic aid helped to ensure economic revival, political stability, and democracy. In the Third World, however, aid has been associated with very different tendencies: uneven political development, violence, political instability, and authoritarian rule in most countries.Despite these differing patterns of political change in Europe and the Third World, however, American conceptions of political development hav…

  • Sino-Soviet Relations and Southeast Asia: Recent Developments and Future Possibilities

    Melvin GurtovARTICLEPacific Affairs1970

    TENSION, FIGHTING, AND NEGOTIATIONS over the Sino-Soviet border in i969 indicate that the border region with the Soviet Union is now China's major external concern, not Southeast Asia. Although the Chinese have ideological allies in several Southeast Asian Communist parties, and have contributed (more in propaganda than in arms) to their respective causes, Peking clearly has greater stakes in the outcome of the present discussions with Moscow tha…

  • Taiwan: Looking to the Mainland

    Melvin GurtovARTICLEAsian Survey1968Cited by: 1

    As President Chiang Kai-shek celebrates his eightieth birthday (by the Western calendar), the Republic of China (ROC) has considerable cause for optimism. Official Taipei, viewing the mainland's great cultural revolution with remarkable restraint, apparently sees the possibility of a dramatic change in leadership in Peking that could evolve into a breakup of centralized power and provide appropriate conditions for the long-awaited return of the N…

  • Recent Developments on Formosa

    Open AccessMelvin GurtovARTICLEThe China Quarterly1967

    Ever since the conquest of the mainland by Communist forces, the foreign policy of the Republic of China has revolved about a single goal: recovery of the mainland. Recovery of the mainland is, in fact, the reason d'être of the Chiang Kai-shek régime; should the government ever admit doubts about its ability or desire to return, the entire basis for KMT rule would be irrevocably undercut. It is therefore not surprising that, in the last two years…
