Book Synopsis Strategic Cultures in the Asia-Pacific Region by : Ken Booth
Download or read book Strategic Cultures in the Asia-Pacific Region written by Ken Booth and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1999-02-26 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book a multinational and inter-disciplinary group of contributors have written original essays seeking to provide the first profile of the strategic cultures of the states of the Asia-Pacific region. Strategic culture consists of the traditional cultural, historical, political and societal factors that help shape the defence policies and strategic behaviour of countries. As such, it is a necessary element in understanding the security issues of this changing and increasingly significant region in world politics. In addition to contributing to a better understanding of the security problems and prospects of the Asia-Pacific, the book gives additional empirical flesh to the developing concept of strategic culture and also relates it to the prospects for conflict management in the region, as well as military strategy.
Book Synopsis Strategic Cultures and Security Policies in the Asia-Pacific by : Jeffrey S. Lantis
Download or read book Strategic Cultures and Security Policies in the Asia-Pacific written by Jeffrey S. Lantis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-22 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how one of the most powerful tools of security studies—strategic culture—illuminates the origins and implications of the Asia-Pacific region’s difficult issues, from the rise of China and the American pivot, to the shifting calculations of many other actors. Strategic culture sometimes challenges and always enriches prevailing neo-realist presumptions about the region. It provides a bridge between material and ideational explanations of state behavior and helps capture the tension between neoclassical realist and constructivist approaches. The case studies in this book survey the role of strategic culture in the behaviors of Australia, China, Japan, the Philippines, South Korea and the United States. They show the contrast between structural expectations and cultural predispositions, as realist geopolitical security threats and opportunities interact with domestic elite and popular interpretation of historical narratives and distinctive political-military cultures to influence security policies. The concluding chapter devotes special attention to methodological issues at the heart of strategic cultural studies, as well as how culture may impact the potential for future conflict or cooperation in the region. The result is a body of work that helps deepen our understanding of strategic cultures in the Asia-Pacific in comparative perspective and enrich security studies. This bookw as published as a special issue of Contemporary Security Policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the vital nature of the subject of leadership in Asia and looks, in particular, at the processes and practices within the Asia Pacific region.

The work moves beyond looking only at Western ideas and explores further leadership perspectives based on differing cultural foundations. It considers the influences of Confucianism, Daoism, Mohism and Legalism and also reflects the character of different leadership styles, such as paternalistic, benevolent transactional and transformational styles, as well as authentic and entrepreneurial approaches. Throughout the text, a wide range of international contributors adopt an array of leadership and other theories, cases, sectors and methods to discuss leadership in Asia. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Asia Pacific Business Review.

Book Synopsis War Strategy Divergence Place Cultures on a Collision Course by : U.s. Army War College
Download or read book War Strategy Divergence Place Cultures on a Collision Course written by U.s. Army War College and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world's power balance has been in transition from the Atlantic to the Asia-Pacific. Unfortunately, the rise of Asia, and more specifically, the rise of China has been accompanied with the relative decline of the United States and the West. This shifting power balance has complicated the security landscape in the Asia-Pacific region. The most vexing security challenge is between the United States and China. At issue is the possibility of war in the midst of this power transition. How do the great powers, especially the United States and China, deal with each other on security issues? This study examines whether a new approach to intellectual discourse is applicable to the security dialogue between these two nations' security relations. The examination assesses whether strategic war cultures are the fundamental underpinnings to the manner in which these rival nation states interact. This analysis will review historical and contemporary strategic documents relating to the two great powers; assess their correlation to the two nations' current diplomatic, military, and economic involvements. It concludes as to the impact of this correlation on current policies and the development of a valid conceptual agenda on which to base United States future engagement strategy.
Book Synopsis Chinese Strategic Culture and Foreign Policy Decision-Making by : Huiyun Feng
Download or read book Chinese Strategic Culture and Foreign Policy Decision-Making written by Huiyun Feng and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-06-11 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the major academic and policy debates over China’s rise and related policy issues, this book looks into the motivations and intentions of a rising China. Most of the scholarly works on China’s rise approach the question at a structural level by looking at the international system and the systemic impact on China’s foreign policy. Traditional Realist theorists define China as a revisionist power eager to address wrongs done to them in history, whilst some cultural and historical analyses attest that China’s strategic culture has been offensive despite its weak material capability. Huiyun Feng’s path-breaking contribution to the debate tests these rival hypotheses by examining systematically the beliefs of contemporary Chinese leaders and their strategic interactions with other states since 1949 when the communist regime came to power. The focus is on tracing the historical roots of Chinese strategic culture and its links to the decision-making of six key Chinese leaders via their belief systems. Chinese Strategic Culture will be of interest to students of Chinese politics, foreign policy, strategic theory and international relations in general.
