In this book Jin Kai provides an alternative perspective on the power interactions between a
rising China and a relatively declining U.S. in the changing world situation. Grounded in
previous scholarship Jin argues that China's rise is historically culturally and
structurally different a peaceful power transition requires engagement by the U.S. in
international institutions. Grounded in case studies and theory this study will be of
relevance to any reader interested in the evolving great power relationship between China and
the U.S.
