"Développement économique vertigineux, montée en puissance impressionnante, modernisation militaire sans précédent, passions nationalistes souvent incandescentes, confrontation de plus en plus intense avec les États-Unis, tous ces ingrédients connus semblent conduire immanquablement la Chine à la guerre.Les causes immédiates d'un conflit armé ne manquent pas : les prétentions de Pékin en mer de Chine du Sud, le conflit territorial sino-japonais autour des Senkaku (Diaoyu) et surtout la volonté farouche de Xi Jinping de réunifier Taiwan à la République populaire constituent les principaux barils de poudre qui peuvent à tout moment exploser. De fait, les prédictions d'un affrontement militaire dans le détroit de Formose d'où la Chine sortirait vainqueur se multiplient. Pour l'heure, ce que l'on observe avant tout est une utilisation de plus en plus fréquente par le gouvernement chinois de ce qu'on appelle les «zones grises» entre la paix et la guerre. Cette stratégie s'est étendue, en 2020, à la longue frontière sino-indienne. Ce nouveau modus operandi permet aussi à l'Armée populaire de libération (APL) et aux autres agences de sécurité chinoises d'améliorer leur capacité de projection de forces et leur préparation au combat. Mais les enjeux d'une guerre ouverte, et pas uniquement avec les États-Unis, restent énormes, incitant l'APL à d'abord envisager des «opérations extérieures» plus limitées et moins dangereuses. Pour ces raisons, bien que nul ne puisse contrôler les passions humaines, et sans pour autant exclure l'irruption de crises militaires, la Chine et les États-Unis s'orientent plus vers une guerre froide d'un nouveau type que vers une guerre chaude qui pourrait rapidement se nucléariser."

Lavish spectacles such as the Beijing Olympics and Expo 2010 have raised China's global profile and echoed predictions of a rise to the position of a major world actor. Yet moves towards a market-based economy, together with the global recession, have exacerbated a number of political and social challenges for the Chinese government. The tensions between communist and capitalist identities continue to divide society. The People's Republic is now over sixty years old -- an appropriate juncture at which to reassess the state of contemporary Chinese politics. In this substantially revised third edition, Saich delivers a thorough introduction to all aspects of politics and governance in post-Mao China, taking full account of the changes of the Seventeenth Party Congress and Eleventh National People's Congress. Recent political, economic and social developments are also examined.

The May 19-20, 2011 Asan conference provided a venue to reassess foreign policy decision-making in China. Bringing together leading voices in this reassessment, the meeting elicited lively exchanges centered not on refuting rival interpretations but on jointly exploring leads that clarify the processes of China's foreign policy formulation that have yet to be adequately explained. Updating the conference papers to cover the end of 2011, this book reflects the state of analysis on the eve of the important 2012-13 transition to China's fifth-generation leaders. The Asan Institute for Policy Studies is an independent think tank located in Seoul, South Korea, that provides innovative policy solutions and spearheads public discourse on many of the core issues that Korea, East Asia, and the global community face. The goal of the institute is not only to offer policy solutions but also to train experts in public diplomacy and related fields in order to strengthen Korea's capacity to better tackle some of the most pressing problems affecting the country, the region and the world today.

"Displaying new assertiveness and prominence, China under President Xi Jinping is rightly considered an emerging superpower backed by growing economic and impressive military strength. But this is only part of the story of China's rise. As Robert G. Sutter shows in this meticulous and balanced assessment, the record of twists and turns in Chinese foreign relations since the end of the Cold War highlights a very different perspective. Domestic problems, nationalism, and security concerns continue to preoccupy Beijing, complicating China's influence and innovations in foreign affairs. On the international front, the actions of China's neighbors and the United States and China's growing dependence on the world economy complicate and constrain as well as enhance China's advance to international prominence. Providing a comprehensive introduction to Chinese foreign relations, Sutter shows China exerting growing influence in world affairs but remaining far from dominant. Facing numerous contradictions and tradeoffs, Chinese leaders--even the self-assured Xi Jinping--avoid major confrontations with powerful competitors and eschew the costly commitments associated with regional and global leadership."--Publisher's description.
