Average Course Rating

(-1)

This course explores China’s changing approach to its frontiers, both its territorial periphery and the frontiers created by its rising capabilities to use what are often described as “ global commons,” such as the oceans, polar regions and outer space. Through close readings of academic and policy-oriented literature and primary research, this class enables students to delve into emerging issues in China’s role on the global stage. A goal is for students to explore how the admixture of China’s renewed emphasis in its governance on centralized leadership by the Chinese Communist Party, its push to advance its already considerable technical and technological prowess, and its growing concern with military-security as well as development in its civil and military planning is reshaping China’s foreign and security policy and attendant international relations.
