Abstract

For all their spectacular growth, China and India must still lift a hundred million citizens out of poverty and create jobs for the numerous laborers. Both powers hope trade and investment will sustain national unity. For the first time, Jonathan Holslag identifies these objectives as new sources of rivalry and argues that China and India cannot grow without fierce contest.Though he recognizes that both countries wish to maintain stable relations, Holslag argues that success in implementing economic reform will give way to conflict. This rivalry is already tangible in Asia as a whole, where shifting patterns of economic influence have altered the balance of power and have led to shortsighted policies that undermine regional stability. Holslag also demonstrates that despite two decades of peace, mutual perceptions have become hostile, and a military game of tit-for-tat promises to diminish prospects for peace. Holslag therefore refutes the notion that development and interdependence lead to peace, and he does so by embedding rich empirical evidence within broader debates on international relations theory. His book is down-to-earth and realistic while also taking into account the complexities of internal policymaking. The result is a fascinating portrait of the complicated interaction among economic, political, military, and perceptional levels of diplomacy.

Abstract

De eenentwintigste eeuw wordt die van Azië, maar het wordt een eeuw van geopolitieke hoogspanning. Het ambitieuze China torent zodanig boven zijn buurlanden uit dat het steeds meer argwaan opwekt, vrees voor onevenwichtige partnerschappen en wantrouwen ten aanzien van de snelle militaire modernisering. Nu al slaan kleinere Aziatische regios de handen ineen om zich te verzetten, maar de kans is miniem dat China tegenstand zal dulden. In Onmogelijke vrede, de opvolger van het baanbrekende De kracht van het paradijs, stelt Jonathan Holslag dat de verantwoordelijkheid voor de spanningen niet uitsluitend bij China ligt. Op verhelderende wijze verklaart hij waarom, vele goede intenties ten spijt, Chinas belangrijkste aspiraties onverzoenbaar blijven met die van zijn buren. Dat is de nieuwe tragedie van de Aziatische grootmachtenpolitiek..Bron : http://www.bol.com

Abstract

China's ambition is to rise peacefully. Avoiding fierce conflicts with its Asian neighbors is essential to this goal. Jonathan Holslag makes a brilliant case for the geopolitical dilemma facing the rising China, and his argument that China will likely enter into major conflict with Asia is compelling and thoughtful. Both Chinese experts and decision-makers will find this book illuminating reading.Asia is set for another great power war. As China's influence spreads beyond its territorial borders and its global aspirations gain momentum, so tensions with its neighbors are reaching breaking point. In this clear-sighted book, Jonathan Holslag debunks the myth of China's peaceful rise, arguing instead that China's policy of shrewd intransigence towards other Asian countries will inevitably result in serious conflict.China's ambitions are not malicious. But what China wants - namely to maximize its security and prosperity ? will lead to a huge power imbalance, where China towers above her neighbors, impels them into unequal partnerships, and is increasingly able to seize disputed territory. At present, China?s focused and uncompromising pursuit of its own interests is bearing fruit. Many of China's neighbors are still too weak to counter Beijing's influence, and China has ably exploited divisions between them to divide and rule. But several regional powers are now joining forces to stop China. With the PRC unlikely to back down and nationalism riding high, China's coming war with Asia is already in the making.Bron : http://www.politybooks.com

Abstract

Wij, Europeanen, leven met het gevoel dat de toekomst aan ons voorbijgaat. De crisis woedt als een storm over het continent en zet alle zekerheden op losse schroeven. Maar hebben we echt de boot gemist ? En begrijpen we wel goed wat er aan de hand is ? Jonathan Holslag beschrijft in De kracht van het paradijs op overrompelende wijze de naoorlogse economische geschiedenis van Europa. Het is een episch verhaal over onze drang naar welvaart en de manier waarop we het noorden zijn kwijtgeraakt. Als chroniqueur van zijn tijd kent Holslag zijn gelijke niet. Tegenover het haarscherpe, ontstellende portret van een continent met een kapseizende economie, plaatst Holslag de mogelijkheid van een nieuwe renaissance. Diep in Europa zit nog steeds de kracht van het paradijs.Bron : http://www.wpg.be

Abstract

In de afgelopen drieduizend jaar was China elf eeuwen in oorlog. Het Romeinse Rijk was gedurende de helft van zijn bestaan in conflicten verwikkeld. Sinds 1776 zijn de Verenigde Staten zeker honderd jaar in oorlog geweest. Mensen hebben altijd gedroomd van vrede. Waarom bereiken we haar zo zelden ?In Vrede en oorlog presenteert Jonathan Holslag een meeslepende wereldgeschiedenis, van de IJzertijd tot vandaag. Hij onderzoekt de oorzaken van conflicten tussen rijken, landen en volken en de pogingen tot diplomatie en verzoening.Het boek schetst een beeld van de politieke krachtenvelden van het oude Egypte tot de Han-dynastie, van de Pax Romana tot de opkomst van de islam, van de Vrede van Westfalen tot de oprichting van de Verenigde Naties.

Abstract

In A Political History of the World, Jonathan Holslag has produced a sweeping history of the world, from the Iron Age to the present, that investigates the causes of conflict between empires, nations and peoples and the attempts at diplomacy and cosmopolitanism. A birds-eye view of three thousand years of history, the book illuminates the forces shaping world politics from Ancient Egypt to the Han Dynasty, the Pax Romana to the rise of Islam, the Peace of Westphalia to the creation of the United Nations.This truly global approach enables Holslag to search for patterns across different eras and regions, and explore larger questions about war, diplomacy, and power. Has trade fostered peace? What are the limits of diplomacy? How does environmental change affect stability? Is war a universal sin of power? At a time when the threat of nuclear war looms again, this is a much-needed history intended for students of international politics, and anyone looking for a background on current events.

Abstract

Al bijna twee decennia beweert China dat zijn groeiende economie de groei, export en tewerkstelling in Europa bevorderen. De realiteit is echter niet zo zwart-wit: onevenwichtige handel met China heeft Europa de afgelopen tien jaar meer dan 1.4 biljoen euro gekost en haar politieke invloed ondermijnd. China's grootste infrastructuurproject, de Nieuwe Zijderoute, zal de situatie alleen maar erger maken. Holslag stelt dat Europa minder afhankelijk moet worden van China en moet werken aan een sterker en duurzamer economisch model.https://www.horizon.be/boek/484/jonathan-holslag-de-nieuwe-zijderoute.html
