DESCRIPTION:The existing scholarship on asymmetric statecraft focuses on h
 ow a great power engages with one weaker power\, and inadequately examines
  how a great power engages with multiple weaker powers. Under what circums
 tances does a great power deal with multiple weaker neighbours through eit
 her uniform or selective strategies? Adding to theories that focus on exte
 rnal threats\, domestic politics\, and ideology\, China’s Asymmetric Sta
 tecraft proposes a regional competition theory. The theory argues that the
  number of regional competitors and alignment relationships both shape a g
 reat power’s regional diplomacy\, with regard to uniform strategies or s
 elective strategies. In an environment of numerous regional competitors an
 d alignments\, China has developed a form of asymmetric statecraft toward 
 its many weaker neighbours. Drawing on extensive Chinese\, Russian\, Germa
 n\, American\, and NATO archival sources from the past sixty years\, China
 ’s Asymmetric Statecraft explores Chinese policy in East Asia from 1955 
 to 1965\, in South Asia from 1955 to 1963\, and in Indochina from 1962 to 
 1975. \n\nYuxing Huang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Inte
 rnational Relations at Tsinghua University. He has held visiting positions
  at Harvard University\, Johns Hopkins University\, Universität Trier\, t
 he Carter Centre\, and the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). He is 
 currently an Academic Visitor at the University of Oxford China Centre.\nS
