0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.

China’s ambitions, America’s interests, Taiwan’s destiny, and Asia’s future / Friedman, Edward   Journal Article
Friedman, Edward Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract For international relations realists, the rise of a world power changes the global distribution of power. By so doing, it redefines national interests and compels governments to rethink old policies that suddenly do not make sense. Given the rise of China, it is not surprising that some American analysts suggest a change in U.S. policy toward Taiwan ending U.S. arms sales. This article weighs the arguments for and against that policy change in the context of China's awesome rise and of American interests in the Asia-Pacific region.
