  • The Pacific Islands and Chinese power as presence, influence, and interference

    Open Access•J Wallis, Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•European Journal of International…•2024•Cited by: 1

    Dominant debates about China’s growing presence in the Pacific Islands – through infrastructure, aid, trade, and investment – suggest that Chinese material power directly translates to influence and effective interference in Pacific states’ domestic and foreign affairs. These perspectives fail to clarify the causal link between Chinese economic statecraft and Pacific governments’ alignment with Beijing’s interests. They also deny Pacific people a…

  • Foreign capital and US states’ contested strategies of internationalisation

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Contemporary Politics•2022•Cited by: 4•References: 42

    The article presents a Constructivist framework for subnational diplomacy (aka paradiplomacy), critiquing the Neoliberal assumptions regarding US states' search for foreign capital as driven by ‘objective' market forces, free of intra-subnational conflicts and geopolitical implications. Using Formosa Plastics' investment projects in Texas and Louisiana as case studies, it argues that paradiplomatic agency—rather than restricted to subnational exe…

  • Paradiplomacy as a Provincial State-Building Project

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Foreign Policy Analysis•2016•Cited by: 5•References: 33

    This article examines Yunnan’s relations with the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) countries grouped in the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) GMS Program. While locating the analysis in the context of paradiplomacy, this article makes two claims. First, it argues that—unlike subnational governments in federal states—Yunnanese authorities do not use domestic opportunity structures to develop the province’s international agency. Instead, they pursue par…

  • Emerging donors and new contests over aid policy in Pacific Asia

    Andrew Rosser, Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•The Pacific Review•2015•Cited by: 2•References: 15

    The rise of emerging donors has unleashed new political contests over aid policy, some of which have occurred at the domestic level. This article locates the special edition's analysis of these contests within the existing literature on emerging donors, draws out the key findings of included papers, and considers their implications for policy. It argues that domestic contests have had significant influence over aid policy in both emerging and est…

  • State transformation and the domestic politics of foreign aid in Taiwan

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•The Pacific Review•2015•Cited by: 2•References: 8

    This article challenges the dominant narrative that overlooks the role of domestic factors in Taiwanese foreign aid in favour of politics cast at the cross-Strait and international levels. It examines the emergence and effects of partisan politics on Taipei's foreign aid policies, including aid budgets and the motivation for providing foreign aid. It argues that, rather than the cross-Strait conflict as such, it was contests and rivalries among T…

  • Internationalisation of the Chinese subnational state and capital

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz, Kanishka Jayasuriya•ARTICLE•Australian Journal Of International…•2014•Cited by: 12•References: 13

    This article examines the participation of China's Yunnan Province in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) in order to understand the dynamics behind the regionalisation and internationalisation strategies adopted by a Chinese subnational state. It argues that the Yunnan case demonstrates the outflow of state capital—both national and provincially based—to have been instrumental in harnessing Beijing's and Kunming's political support for programs o…

    This article examines China's and Taiwan's humanitarian assistance to Haiti, as well as the extent to which China and Taiwan – as non-Development Assistance Committee (DAC) donors – adhered to the DAC-established humanitarian assistance architecture. It argues that China's and Taiwan's emergency aid was comparable with the DAC donorship in terms of its declaratory commitment to altruism and the pursuit of strategic objectives. Both Beijing and Ta…

    This article examines the China-Taiwan diplomatic truce through the prism of Taiwan's post-2009 participation in the World Health Organization (WHO). It argues that Taipei's inclusion in the International Health Regulations (IHR) and its observer status at the World Health Assembly (WHA) did not signify a suspension of the cross-Strait dispute over Taipei's capacity to participate in international a airs independently of Beijing.

  • Does size matter? Foreign aid in Taiwan's diplomatic strategy, 2000–8

    This article is the first systematic attempt at estimating the size of Taiwanese foreign aid and, thus, the cost of Taiwan's aid diplomacy. It questions the Republic of China (ROC) President Ma Ying-jeou's justification of his ‘diplomatic truce’ with China as necessitated by an ineffectiveness of his predecessor Chen Shui-bian's costly aid diplomacy. Deriving its evidence from the ROC governmental budgets, local media reports and interviews with …

It also examines Chinese responses to the White Paper's main theses. It concludes that the White Paper marked a departure from the Howard government's policy of de-emphasising differences in Canberra's dialogue with Beijing and, by re-affirming comm…

  • Taiwan and Post-Communist Europe

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•BOOK•Taiwan and Post-Communist Europe•2007

    Taiwan and Post-Communist Europe examines Taiwan’s economic diplomacy towards post-communist states in Central and Eastern Europe. The media, and occasionally academia, have often suggested that Taipei resorts to costly aid, trade and investment diplomacy to facilitate its foreign relations, whilst China engages in equally costly counter-economic diplomacy to keep Taiwan isolated. Czeslaw Tubilewicz argues conversely that Beijing’s diplomacy in p…

  • Europe in Taiwan's Post–Cold War Foreign Relations

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Diplomacy and Statecraft•2007

    The article examines Taiwan's relationship with Europe (both Western and East Central), paying particular attention to the Taiwanese diplomatic strategies and their consequences in the 1990s and 2000s, as well as to the European responses. It argues that although Taipei's greatest triumphs in Europe—such as the arms deals, diplomatic or consular agreements or gaining support for membership in international organizations—proved either sporadic or …

  • Taiwan and the Soviet Union during the Cold War

    Open Access•Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Communist and Post-Communist…•2005•References: 9

    Taking into account recently published evidence on Taiwan’s relations with the Soviet Union during the Cold War, this article examines the official and secret contacts between Moscow and Taipei from 1949 to 1988. It argues that despite some consideration given to a possible cooperation, Cold War hostility suited Taiwan and the Soviet Union more than collaboration. Taipei resorted to the ‘Soviet card’ in the 1970s to hinder Sino—American rapproche…

  • Taiwan and the Soviet Union During the Cold War

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Cold War History•2004•References: 1

    The article questions Michael Share's thesis concerning the reasons behind the continued hostility between the Soviet Union and Taiwan during the Cold War, irrespective of re-established contacts in the late 1960s-early 1970s. It argues that the newly emerged evidence concerning Soviet-Taiwanese relations during the Cold War validated John Garver's conclusions, published in 1977, while Share fails to provide sufficient evidence to support his maj…

  • Breaking the ice

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Europe Asia Studies•2004

    For two decades the Soviet bloc made a concerted effort to normalise relations with the People's Republic of China (PRC). Once this had been accomplished in 1989, the systemic changes in the Soviet bloc and the tragedy of 4 June diminished the ideological and geo-strategic significance of friendship with the PRC. In this context Taiwan faced an unprecedented opportunity to present itself to the states in transition not only as a democratic and ec…

    Czeslaw Tubilewicz•ARTICLE•Europe Asia Studies•2002•Cited by: 1

    To say that the study of the Baltic states' role in Taiwan's post-Cold War foreign relations has received little academic attention would be an understatement. So far, students of ROC foreign relations have briefly mentioned Taiwanese-Baltic ties in the context of Taipei's relations with Russia or (more rarely) Europe, while those researching the Baltic states' diplomacy have failed altogether to notice their activities in Asia, focusing instead …

It argues that during the first decade following the end of the Cold War Taipei ‐ despite its intent ‐ failed to capitalize on the systemic changes in the Balkans due to its limited interest in expanding trade wit…

    The systemic changes in East Central Europe (ECE)1 in 1989-90 caused weighty concern among the decision makers in the People's Republic of China (PRC). There were at least three factors behind their anxiety. First, past Sino-ECE interactions included several instances in which ECE domestic developments exerted a substantial impact upon Chinese domestic politics. Twice before, in 1956 and 1980-81, the Chinese leadership took the perceived influenc…
