The Sino-Russian Relationship and Its Implications Across the Eurasian and Indo-Pacific Strategic Theaters
Viewing Eurasia and the Indo-Pacific region as distinct strategic theaters is no longer viable. Russia and China are increasingly aligning across both regions, challenging the Western-led liberal international order and its associated security architecture. We begin by examining China’s relations in Central Asia as a case study of Eurasian geopolitical transformation and its implications for Sino-Russian relations. China has become increasingly i…
The challenges of Sino-Russian alignment to the liberal international order in Southeast Asia
This paper explores the challenges of Sino-Russian alignment to liberal international order (LIO) in the Indo-Pacific, with a focus on Southeast Asia. Rather than being based upon common interests or values, the alignment between Russian and Chinese interests is pragmatic and expedient in the context of contemporary international affairs. China is traditionally an important player in Southeast Asia, while Russia lacks significant strategic presen…
Challenging Dollar Dominance? The Geopolitical Dimensions of Renminbi (RMB) Internationalisation
This paper examines the geopolitical dimensions of China's strategy to internationalise the renminbi (RMB) and reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar. Far from a purely financial initiative, RMB internationalisation is a strategic response to the geopolitical and economic risks of a dollar-centric order. Through instruments such as the petroyuan, bilateral currency swaps, the Cross-Border Interbank Payment System, and the digital yuan, China seeks to…

China’s Evolving Energy Security Strategy
This article explores the ways in which China's energy security strategy has evolved over the past fifteen years. Energy security had become an urgent policy priority for Beijing by the mid-2000s due to China's rapidly increasing oil import dependency set against the backdrop of oil scarcity and rising oil prices. Rather than rely on purely market-based means to secure oil supply, China pursued a state-led or neomercantilist approach. Initially, …
Asean's ‘people-oriented’ aspirations
Since the Asian financial crisis, the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) has sought to reorient itself towards becoming a ‘people-oriented’ association. Democratic transitions in the region and increased demands from civil society to be actively involved in regional governance have prompted ASEAN to develop forms of participatory regionalism. In practice, however, the rhetorical aspirations of ASEAN have not often matched the level of…
Citizen participation, community resilience and crisis-management policy
This article presents two arguments. The first relates to the relevance of citizen participation vis-à-vis the design and implementation of public policy. More specifically, the article empirically demonstrates how a model of community decentralisation can have a number of practical benefits for crisis-management policy. The second argument relates to a question that has come to characterise studies of citizen participation in public policy. Why …
