A propos de cet article

This book examines China?s national security strategy by looking at the threemajor elements?foreign policy, energy security, and naval power?allinteractive and major influences on China?s future and its relations with theUnited States.A decade and a half into the twenty-first century, Beijing requires reliableaccess to energy resources, the navy to defend that access, and foreignpolicies to navigate safely toward its goals.

China?s priorities followPresident Xi Jinping?s definition of national security as ?comprehensive,encompassing politics, the military, the economy, technology, the environmentand culture.? What this means for future Chinese foreign policy choices, asnaval modernization and energy security concerns enable different courses ofaction, lies at the center of this book?s conclusions. …
