  • China, Cambodia, and the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence: Principles and Foreign Policy
    China, Cambodia, and the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence: Principles and Foreign Policy Sophie Diamant Richardson Old Chatham, New York Bachelor of Arts, Oberlin College, 1992 Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2001 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Politics University of Virginia May, 2005 !, 11 !K::;=::: .' P I / j ;/"'" G 2 © Copyright by Sophie Diamant Richardson All Rights Reserved May 2005 3 ABSTRACT Most international relations scholarship concentrates exclusively on cooperation or aggression and dismisses non-conforming behavior as anomalous. Consequently, Chinese foreign policy towards small states is deemed either irrelevant or deviant. Yet an inquiry into the full range of choices available to policymakers shows that a particular set of beliefs – the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence – determined options, thus demonstrating the validity of an alternative rationality that standard approaches cannot apprehend. In theoretical terms, a belief-based explanation suggests that international relations and individual states’ foreign policies are not necessarily determined by a uniformly offensive or defensive posture, and that states can pursue more peaceful security strategies than an “anarchic” system has previously allowed. “Security” is not the one-dimensional, militarized state of being most international relations theory implies. Rather, it is a highly subjective, experience-based construct, such that those with different experiences will pursue different means of trying to create their own security. By examining one detailed longitudinal case, which draws on extensive archival research in China, and three shorter cases, it is shown that Chinese foreign policy makers rarely pursued options outside the Five Principles.

    Country for sale – how Cambodia’s elite has captured the country’s extractive industries Glossary of key terms Resource curse – the phenomenon by which natural resource wealth often results in poor standards of human development, bad governance, increased corruption and sometimes conflict. Extractive industries – for the purposes of this report, the extractive industries are defined as the oil, gas, and mining industries. Kleptocracy – a style of governance characterised by high-level corruption and looting of state funds for the purpose of increasing the personal wealth and political power of the ruling class. Shadow state1 – a state where political power is wielded as a means to personal self- enrichment and state institutions are subverted to support those needs. Behind the laws and government institutions of such states is a parallel system of personal rule. Leaders of these states are typically able to exploit their country’s public assets, particularly natural resources, through the subversion of bureaucratic institutions and the monopoly on the use of violence. In this way, they can enrich themselves and pay for the means to stay in power. 1 Country for sale – how Cambodia’s elite has captured the country’s extractive industries Map Glossary of key terms Contents Recommendations Summary Chapter I: Cambodia’s extractive industries – the stakes are high Minerals – an introduction Oil and gas – an introduction Cambodia today: From democracy experiment to one-party kleptocracy Box 1: Wasted wood – the lessons of illegal logging Box

  • ADB and CAMBODIA 50 YEARS of PARTNERSHIP 1966–2016 This Year Marks a 50-Year Evolving Partnership Between Cambodia and the Asian Development Bank (ADB)
    ADB AND CAMBODIA 50 YEARS OF PARTNERSHIP 1966 –2016 This year marks a 50-year evolving partnership between Cambodia and the Asian Development Bank (ADB). As one of ADB's founding members in 1966, Cambodia ceased to be a member in 1975 following a period of war and social conflict. In 1992 ADB resumed its operations in Cambodia following the peace agreement in Paris. Shifting from central command to market-based policies, the Government of Cambodia and ADB are now working hand in hand, embarking on a development path that emphasizes economic, inclusive, and sustainable growth. This album captures this 50–year journey. TIMELINES This section provides an insight into the various phases of ADB’s relationship with Cambodia, from the early beginnings in the 1960s, ADB’s reengagement in the early 1990s, emerging shifts in the economy in the late 1990s, and postmillennium up to the present. The Early Beginning 1960s ADB was established in Manila, Philippines in 1966. Cambodia was one of its founding members. ADB’s mission was to reduce poverty in Asia, which at the time was one of the world’s poorest regions. From left to right: ADB is established in Manila, 1966; First ADB President Takeshi Watanabe takes office; Original location of the ADB Headquarters in Manila, Philippines (now occupied by the Department of Foreign Affairs); First ADB logo.
