  • Deciphering Chinese Deterrence Signalling in the New Era an Analytic Framework and Seven Case Studies
    AUSTRALIA C O R P O R A T I O N NATHAN BEAUCHAMP-MUSTAFAGA, DEREK GROSSMAN, KRISTEN GUNNESS, MICHAEL S. CHASE, MARIGOLD BLACK, NATALIA SIMMONS-THOMAS Deciphering Chinese Deterrence Signalling in the New Era An Analytic Framework and Seven Case Studies RR-A1074-1 A4 Cover text only.indd 1,3 5/14/21 1:33 AM The research described in this RAND Australia report was prepared for Australian Department of Defence and was conducted within RAND Australia under Contract HQ0034-16-D-0001. About RAND Australia RAND Australia’s mission is to help improve policy and decisionmaking through research and analysis. RAND’s publications do not necessarily reflect the opinions of its research clients and sponsors.

For more information on this publication, visit www.rand.org/t/RRA1074-1 Preface The purpose of this report is to examine how China’s approach to deterrence signalling is evolving along with its expanding objectives, growing military capabilities, and the availability of new communication channels, such as Chinese- and English-language social media. As China’s pursuit of its goals becomes more assertive, one critically important question for analysts and policymakers in Australia, the United States, and other regional countries is how to interpret China’s changing approach to deterrence signalling. This report is intended to contribute to a better understanding of deterrence and countercoercion across domains in the Indo-Pacific region at a time of increased friction and strategic competition with China.
