Bidenomics in the Indo-Pacific: Strategic Implications
Mongolia’s Place in China’s Periphery Diplomacy
Imperialism and the Middle Kingdom: The Xi Jinping administration’s peripheral diplomacy with developing states
This article applies the Nexon/Wright concept of ideal-type empire to the study of China’s post-2012 peripheral relations to demonstrate that the Xi administration is engaged in a concerted imperialist policy towards its developing neighbour states. Using the Nexon/Wright framework, the article demonstrates how the establishment of a China-centric regional network structure undergirds the Xi administration’s key foreign policy concepts and how th…
China’s Silk Road Economic Belt Initiative: Network and Influence Formation in Central Asia
This article demonstrates that, rather than constituting a new model for Central Asian international relations, the SREB’s real strategic value for China is as an organizational concept and as an influence multiplier. In recasting its Central Asian bilateral relations as part of the SREB engagement model, Beijing has overlaid a strategic-level concept to its otherwise disparate patterns of engagement. In so doing, the Xi administration has consol…
Chinese-Japanese Competition and the East Asian Security Complex: Vying for Influence
Chinese Foreign Relations with Weak Peripheral States: Asymmetrical Economic Power and Insecurity
Ideas and Influence: Scholarship as a Harbinger of Counterterrorism Institutions, Policies, and Laws in the People's Republic of China
This article demonstrates how scholarship on terrorism in China has provided the intellectual backdrop against which China's leadership has developed the country's counterterrorism institutions, policies, and laws. Building on the linkages between scholarship and policy-making, the article suggests potential avenues for policy reform in China's current counterterrorism architecture
Economic Statecraft, Structural Power, and Structural Violence in Sino-Kyrgyz Relations
This article employs the concepts of structural power and structural violence to a undertake critical study of China’s use of economic statecraft toward Kyrgyzstan. The article argues that China’s reliance on economic exchange to secure its strategic ends in Kyrgyzstan has resulted in asymmetric economic exchange between the two states. Through this asymmetric exchange, China has gained influence over Kyrgyzstan’s domestic structures. Chinese str…
Locating Middle Powers in International Relations Theory and Power Transitions
Middle Powers and the Rise of China
A Search for Causality
This article examines China’s non-traditional security ( NTS ) relations with its neighbouring states through the lens of state weakness. Building on existing Chinese language literature on the NTS situation in China, the article demonstrates how weak institutions, political illegitimacy and poor state–society relations in six of China’s periphery states—Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Nepal, Myanmar, and Mongolia—negatively impact China’s dom…
Rethinking weak state behavior: Mongolia’s foreign policy toward China
Weak Power Bargaining with China: Mongolia and North Korea in comparative perspective
This article examines Mongolia's and North Korea's bargaining with the People's Republic of China to provide insight into Northeast Asian regional dynamics and weak state bargaining behavior. The article demonstrates how both Mongolia and North Korea (which it demonstrates are weak states) employ a variety of tactics within the categories of capitulation, neutrality and confrontation when managing their respective relations with China. The articl…
Sino-Mongolian relations and Mongolia's non-traditional security
The following article examines the effect China has on Mongolia's non-traditional security. Using the Copenhagen School's approach to non-traditional security, the article argues that Mongolia's economic dependence on China coupled with weak political security have allowed China to develop structural power over Mongolia's domestic institutions. This structural power also negatively affects Mongolia's societal and environmental security. Chinese s…
China's Unraveling Engagement Strategy
The growing consensus among Chinese analysts, both in China and the West, that elements of China’s contemporary foreign policy have been self-defeating 1 is important but limited in two significant ways. First, it focuses on China’s most divisive policy stances—such as its expansive territorial claims, disruptive diplomacy in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), or growing use of unilateral economic sanctions. This focus on controv…
China's self-defeating tactics in Nepal
China's use of coercion and its myopic focus on Tibetan issues in Nepal are undermining Nepalese public support for China's involvement in Nepal. If China desires continued, constructive contact with Nepal, it must alter its foreign policy approach accordingly. Yet all indications suggest that China will continue with its status quo policies toward Nepal in the near and medium term. This suggests that China's relations with Nepal will become more…
Mongolia's evolving security strategy: Omni-enmeshment and balance of influence
With the publication of its 2010 National Security Concept and its 2011 Foreign Policy Concept, Ulaanbaatar has formalised a shift in foreign policy that has been readily apparent since 2000. Whereas Mongolia's foreign policy for the 1990s was formulated around an omni-enmeshment strategy, its foreign policy from 2000 onward is best conceptualised as an amalgam of omni-enmeshment and balance of influence. Ulaanbaatar's new foreign policy strategy…
Mongolia's Environmental Security
This article examines China's “unconscious power” over Mongolia's environmental sector. It argues that Ulaanbaatar's state weakness and Chinese unconscious power constitute a mutually reinforcing threat to Mongolia's environmental security
Resources, Sovereignty, and Governance: Can Mongolia Avoid the ‘Resource Curse
The revenue generated from Mongolia's natural resources has the potential to transform the Mongolian state and society. Indeed, investment in mining has already led to a spate of urban growth in Ulaanbaatar and rural development throughout the rest of the country. Yet Mongolia's natural resources could also contribute to a 'natural resource curse' if not properly managed. Effective governance in relation to the state's natural resource sector is,…
