Neoclassical Realism, Nationalism and the Evolution of China’s Revisionism in Maritime East Asia
The ascent of a more ambitious China over the last decade has ignited a vast debate about the role of Chinese nationalism in the formulation of Beijing’s foreign and security policy (FSP). A large number of studies have attempted to unveil direct causation mechanisms between shifts in the nature or intensity of Chinese nationalism and reorientations of Beijing’s FSP. Building on recent developments in the Neoclassical Realist research programme, …
Inconsequential setback
On August 31, 2021, 20 years after the beginning of Operation Enduring Freedom, President Biden announced the completion of the United States (US) withdrawal from Afghanistan. The difficult conditions of the withdrawal raised major questions about US credibility, as images from Kabul were broadcasted around the world. Pundits, scholars, and former decision makers warned that reputational damages incurred by Washington could lead Chinese decision …
The fragility of general deterrence
The last decade has witnessed the gradual erosion of the maritime status quo in East Asia, as the United States proved unable to curb Chinese challenges in the East and South China seas. This article argues that this phenomenon is linked to the erosion of US general deterrence posture in the region. It examines the three main factors that have contributed to this erosion: an enduring imbalance of interests between Beijing and Washington, a rapidl…
Determining the Determinants
China's strategy in the South China Sea has gone through considerable changes over the last decades. While multiple oscillations have occurred over short periods of time, the three‐decade‐long “trend line” has been characterized by two major inflection points. China's provocations in the mid‐1990s were followed by a transition to cooperation at the turn of the millennium, itself followed by a shift toward heavy‐handed methods since the turn of th…
China’s rising naval ambitions in the Indian Ocean
China’s naval footprint in the Indian Ocean has expanded considerably over the last decade. This growing presence has led to significant debates about China’s goals and capabilities in the region. This article argues that China’s trajectory over the last ten years reflects an alignment of ends, ways and means in the Indian Ocean. The main driver behind China’s ambitions in the region is the need for Beijing to secure pivotal maritime lines of com…
Embracing the dragon? Europe’s major powers and the rise of China
How have Europe’s major powers – the United Kingdom, France and Germany – responded to China’s growing assertiveness? The common view is that they continue a strategy of “engagement” towards Beijing. However, by tracing their respective patterns of “security alignment behaviour” towards the two rival great powers, the United States and China, we find that despite some variation each of the three powers has responded to China’s growing assertivene…
The Future Instability of Cross-Strait Relations
The 2016 Taiwanese elections which saw a sweeping victory of Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP have revived the question of cross-Strait instability. While observers have generally focus on whether or not the Tsai administration could cross Beijing’s red lines, few have taken into consideration the dynamic nature of these red lines, and how Ma’s presidency had impacted them. This article fills this gap by drawing on prospect theory hypotheses to assess th…
Expanding the Dragon’s Reach
Among the multiple dimensions of the tous azimuths modernisation of Chinese naval forces, the development of China’s anti-access capacity has recently elicited considerable interest. The important link between this capacity and an overarching vision of the use of force – i.e. a naval doctrine – has, however, often been left implicit. This article shows that the particular development of China’s naval anti-access forces – more precisely, forces wi…
Perceptions chinoises d’une Europe en crise
S’il est vrai que c’est dans l’adversité qu’on reconnaît ses vrais amis, alors on ne peut imaginer meilleure situation que la succession de crises qui secouent l’Union européenne depuis le début des années 2000 pour apprécier la solidité, voire la sincérité du partenariat sino-européen. L’examen d’une série d’articles parus dans deux revues très proches du pouvoir central permet ici d’analyser la variété des perceptions chinoises de l’UE entre 20…
How (Dis)Satisfied is China? A power transition theory perspective
The uninterrupted rise of China, concomitant with the progressive erosion of the US unipolar moment, has generated increased interest for the (Power Transition Theory) PTT in the last decade. Observers and scholars have, however, often focused on the possible overtaking of the United States by China, and overlooked the importance of the challenger's ‘satisfaction’ in the PTT. This article fills this gap by providing an assessment of China's satis…
Beyond Balancing? C hina's Quest For Security and Power in E ast A sia
Observing the evolution of C hina's interaction with its international environment, Z hang B aijia argued that the advent of the X inhai R evolution marked the beginning of C hina's participation in the modern interstate system. Becoming a more “normal” player after seven decades of foreign aggressions and encroachments, C hina could hardly have been more aware of the realist rule that, in an anarchic international environment, security can never…
The Driving Forces behind China's Naval Modernization
The rapid development of Chinese naval forces over the last decade has provoked much debate over where this modernization is headed. Observing the decennial evolution of Chinese naval forces, this article questions assumptions that China's naval modernization can be mainly explained by the enduring salience of the Taiwan question or by a “Mahanian” impulse. In the last ten years, China has prioritized the development of its submarine fleet and it…
Locating Transition
In charting the water of the post-Cold War world, one of the most prominent questions touches upon the likely effects of China's rise. Echoing more or less explicitly power transition theory's assumptions, the rapid and multifaceted ascent of China has popularized the idea of a likely overtaking of the American dominant power by the rising challenger. Sceptics have, however, pointed out that by most standards China remains far from being on a par…
