Description
In the early 1990s, the US Chinese Soviet strategic triangle vanished into history and, simultaneously, the US, China and Japan formed their own power triad in the Asia Pacific region. Is this another hostile strategic triangle? How do the three great powers interact with one another? Ming Zhang and Ronald Montaperto tackle these questions and present their answers in this work. Investigating elite perception, domestic constraint, and international distribution of power, the authors find the triangular relationship full of uncertainty but not necessarily of hostility. They reveal the distinguishing characteristics of this triad, including its tendency to function as a reciprocal entity, rather than forming two against one relationships. The book is a full-length work that critically examines the US China Japan triangle. It poses relevant questions and provides analyses of this relatively new international pattern.
