Martin Kossa
Informazioni sul libro
This book locates the Arctic within the context of the People's Republic of China's (PRC) national strategy of the Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation. Drawing on a range of sources published in Chinese and English, the author analyses Beijing's Arctic scientific activities and technological capabilities, including the research infrastructure, long-term goals, and the significance for China's understanding of the region, its Arctic identity, and international perceptions. Examining the region from the perspective of the Comprehensive National Security Outlook developed during the Xi Jinping era, the book focuses on military, economic, technological, and political components and considers the PRC's official and academic discourses and the views of the region within bilateral relations with Arctic states, outlining a science, security, and governance nexus in China's Arctic engagement.
This volume will be of interest to scholars and students of Arctic geopolitics, Chinese studies, security studies, and foreign policy analysis. It will also appeal to policymakers and defence analysts in Arctic states and other regional stakeholders.
