China, Japan, and Senkaku Islands

This book chronicles the journey of Sino-Japanese relations in the explicit context of the Senkaku Islands. It discusses the evolving power transition dynamics in East Asia render Washington the lynchpin of Tokyös diplomatic and security strategy, and vice versa. Conversely, China is abrasively displaying an almost predictable geo-strategic pattern and strategy of enforcing territorial claims across Asia, keeping it just below the threshold of provoking conflict, whilst testing the tenacity of existential status quoist norms.Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
