Explores
the
influence of
geo-politics
in
the Asia-Pacific
region
to
gain
global
order
status
China’s emergence as a global actor has questioned the position of the United States as the strongest power and the future of the Washington-led global order. To achieve the status of a truly global player wielding influence in all dimensions of power would require China to leverage its regional influence in Central Asia. This region is increasingly representing China’s western leg of economic expansion and development, and is of a growing strategic importance for Beijing. It is also a region that should be of greater strategic importance to Washington, which seeks to preserve its leading position in the international system and ensure China’s peaceful integration in the global political, security, and economic architecture.
Audience: This work may appeal to analysts and policymakers interested in the fate of China, the United States, Central Asia, and the world. Students pursuing classes and coursework in cultural studies, economics, Asian studies, and global affairs may be interested in this work for research and as a supplement text for these courses.
