| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Chinese-Japanese relations have become increasingly tense in recent years. It might
be concluded superficially that the recent tensions originated from the historical
issues and the bilateral sovereignty disputes over some islands. However, these
tensions are deeply rooted in the structural contradictions of these bilateral relations,
such as the conflicting national strategies of China and Japan, the relative balance
of power between them, and the discrepancy of their interests in their games
against the background of macro transition of the overall strategic pattern of the
Asia-Pacific region. Furthermore, the U.S. strategic dilemma in this gaming process
adds destabilizing factors to the development of China-Japan bilateral relations.
The outcomes of the China-Japan tensions not only affect the rise and fall of the
relative strengths of these two countries, but also have major influences over the
general strategic arrangements of East Asia and the whole Asia-Pacific. Therefore,
it is very meaningful to probe the deep-rooted causes of the Chinese-Japanese
conflicts and to observe current China-Japan relations from the strategic perspective
because some solutions might be discoverd in this way. |
