During the administrations of Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama, traditional safeguards and stabilizers to strategic competition were largely upheld, albeit with occasional difficulties. However, under the leadership of Donald Trump and China's Xi Jinping, these bulwarks have alarmingly diminished. Abrupt shifts in engagement platforms and assertive regional defensive postures have become the new norm. This book offers much-needed connective tissue in examining these departures and their antecedents across the Bush, Obama, and Trump administrations. It reveals that Washington and Beijing are moving towards a new era characterized by an amplified preponderance of competition, an increased likelihood of conflict and confrontation, and a departure from previous periods of cooperation and stability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book explores the underlying factors that have contributed to these shifts, including economic competition, geopolitical tensions, and cultural differences. It examines how these challenges have been addressed by previous administrations and how they have impacted U.S.-China relations. The book also offers insights into the potential consequences of these developments for the global order, including the risk of military conflict and the erosion of international norms and institutions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, this book provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the core security challenges that have defined U.S. foreign policy in relation to China and its rise on the international stage. It is a valuable resource for policymakers, scholars, and anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics of U.S.-China relations and the broader implications of these challenges for the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 234 x 156 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781474453066\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aiden Warren,Adam Bartley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44096240255226,"sku":"9781474453066","price":18.23,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1662118244450_book.jpg?v=1662214736","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/us-foreign-policy-and-china-the-bush-obama-trump-administrations-9781474453066","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
