Why is it important?
The status of China in the future will be decided by its relations with neighbors. But there have been no sustained efforts to examine the relationships between China and small states surrounding it. This article is about the political economy.
Perspectives
A bipolarity is not likely a future of rising China's status in international relations. China is not a Soviet Union of the Cold War period. The examination of the political economy related to China is essential to project its status in the coming years.
