To convey the image of a responsible power willing to contribute to regional stability and cooperation, China has shifted from a single-minded preference for bilateralism to an active participation in East Asian regionalism in the recent decades. This development has inspired discussions over whether a rising China could play a leadership role in building an institutionalized architecture for regional cooperation in East Asia. Nevertheless, this has not happened as East Asian regional cooperation and relevant activities remain mostly ad hoc and informal, especially when compared to regions such as Europe.
To what extent has China contributed or constrained the development of regionalism in East Asia? What are China’s desired roles and objectives in East Asian regional cooperation? What is the level of trust that other regional players have for China in regional cooperation? This book seeks answers to these questions by exploring China’s motivations and strategic calculations as well as its policy practices in East Asian economic and security cooperation.
This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Contemporary China.
"The research contained within this volume can definitely help readers to understand the change and consistency of China's approach toward regionalism that constitutes the essence behind these new strategies. The works showcased in this collection are a great boon to those interested in the topic of Chinese and East Asian regionalism and integration as they ultimately promote the transparency of this critical region and thus facilitate greater communication and cooperation".
