RESPONDING TO CHINAS RISE GEBUNDEN

In this edited volume  a set of issue and country experts tackle questions regarding Chinäs
current rise to power within the current international economic and political order. The
current international system is governed by a ¿Western¿ conception of order and based on the
primacy of post¿World War II rules  drawn from liberal models of capitalism and democracy
practiced in the US and in Western Europe. In this context  the most important and most
uncertain questions facing the West over the next decade concern how the EU and the US will
respond to Chinäs rapid growth. Will the transatlantic relationship hold and become stronger 
faced with this new economic and geopolitical challenge? Or will the US and the EU¿an
increasingly prominent global player¿compete for economic and political advantage? After a
brief introduction laying out the circumstances of Chinäs economic and political rise and the
challenges that this poses to the existing international order  the book proceeds in three
sections. The first section provides competing theoretical perspectives on Chinäs rise in a
historical context. The second section provides a distinctly Chinese perspective on Chinäs
current rise. The third section looks at responses from the United States and the European
Union  focusing on both economic and security issues as well as the implications of Chinäs rise
for US-EU relations. This book is relevant to both scholars and policymakers concerned with
Chinese domestic politics and foreign policy  US foreign policy  EU foreign policy  China-US
relations  China-EU relations  international security  international political economy and
emerging markets.
