Recenzii
She not only draws attention to an underappreciated motive of Chinese foreign policy, but also develops a sophisticated, and largely persuasive, theory of how and when status concerns encourage leaders to do the unexpected.
This is an important and timely contribution to the field of China, international peace and security and global governance studies and is essential reading for those seeking to better understand China's actions.
With this very fine book, Courtney Fung has established herself as the leading authority on China's policies regarding humanitarian intervention by the United Nations. Reconciling Status is essential reading for anyone interested in international humanitarian crises, the United Nations, or the implications of China's rise for world politics.
Carefully argued, theoretically astute and empirically rich, this book provides crucial insights into the bounded variation of China's positions at the UN Security Council on intervention. The author's contributions are many, including how social influence works to mediate Chinese interests, and how process-tracing can effectively be applied in International Relations scholarship. This book is essential reading for all those interested in China's UN behaviour.
China's attitudes toward United Nations interventions in situations of civil war and mass atrocities have evolved from skeptical opposition to conditional support. Comparing Beijing's actions in cases involving Sudan, Libya and Syria, Courtney Fung makes a novel contribution to our understanding of Chinese foreign policy. She shows that under certain conditions, Beijing's position on such interventions with a strong undertone of regime change can be influenced by international political opinion and consideration of China's international status. This book should be on the shelves of all scholars interested in China's increasing participation in multilateral diplomacy and its quest for status recognition, which can be a source for international cooperation rather than just competition as usually assumed in the current literature.
