This is a view popular among not only American, but also some Chinese, scholars. This book places China in a comparative and historical context, in which inquiry is informed by the experiences of other major powers and pertinent theories in international relations, such as those on extended deterrence, preventive war, and democratic peace. Its comparative and theoretical orientation and its contrarian perspective will be of great interest not only to students and scholars of international relations and Chinese politics, but also to policy makers and professionals. =650 4$$a China-Foreign Relations =650 4$$a United States-Foreign Relations. =990 ##$$a 10219/MKRI-P/XI-2008 =990 ##$$a 10219/MKRI-P/XI-2008
