  • India's Attitude Towards China's Growing Influence in Central Asia
    China and Eurasia Forum Quarterly, Volume 4, No. 3 (2006) p. 23-34 © Central Asia-Caucasus Institute & Silk Road Studies Program ISSN: 1653-4212 India’s Attitude towards China’s Growing Influence in Central Asia Gulshan Sachdeva* The strategic location, energy resources, competition for pipeline routes and the sheer number of regional and global players, were sufficient reasons for many analysts to create theories of the “New Great Game” in Central Asia. The race for military bases and the regime change experiments through “color revolutions” have added a new dimension to this competition. Earlier, analysts felt the real competition was between Russia and the U.S. However as of late, China has created a huge profile for itself through trade, energy deals, military agreements and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). The growing Chinese influence in the region is an established fact. Both internationally1 and in India2, many scholars have commented on it and a lot of literature has been written on the subject. Yet, very few in India3 have directly looked at the implications of the growing Chinese influence on Indian security, energy deals and commerce. This article attempts to fill this gap. Indian policy makers and analysts believe that the region is important because of its strategic location, proximity – Tajikistan is just 20 kilometers from Greater Kashmir - and of its energy resources. 4 Therefore, restoring traditional linkages with its extended neighborhood in Central Asia and beyond has been one of the primary strategic * Gulshan Sachdeva is Associate Professor at the School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University New Delhi, India.

  • The Making of China's Maritime Security Policy: Policy Actors, the Fragmented Authority, and Implications
    The Making of China’s Maritime Security Policy: Policy Actors, the Fragmented Authority, and Implications Chia-Yu Huang A thesis in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Humanities and Social Sciences UNSW Canberra 2014 PLEASE TYPE THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Huang First name: Chia-Yu Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PHO School: School of HASS Faculty: UNSW Canberra Title: The making of China's maritime security policy: policy actors, the fragmented authority, and implications Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) This thesis aims to examine the decision-making process of China's maritime security policy. In particular, it addresses the question of what factors have led to the inconsistent nature of China's maritime security policy, a phenomenon as yet little examined. In contrast to existing studies regarding China's maritime power which have implied that there is a clear driver dominating China's maritime security policy, this thesis highlights inter-agency competition in the policy process. It argues that due to the fragmentation of its decision-making authority, China does not have a clear driving force dominating the making of its maritime security policy. Instead, its policy is influenced and shaped by various loosely coordinated actors in the policy process and is a product of extensive bureaucratic bargaining. Consequently, even though Beijing has an overarching policy guideline to build the country into a maritime power (haiyang qiangguo), relevant decisions on specific maritime security issues are made disjointedly and slowly, which contributes to the inconsistent nature of its maritime security policy.

  • Debate Future Trajectory of Sino- Indian Relations*
    Indian Foreign Affairs Journal Vol. 11, No. 1, January–March 2016, 1-30 DEBATE FUTURE TRAJECTORY OF SINO- INDIAN RELATIONS* Since Prime Minister Modi assumed office in May 2014, there has been considerable forward movement in relations between India and China. However, the ambiguity about the Chinese aims of OBOR, the ramifications of ‘China- Pakistan Economic Corridor’ (CPEC) through POK, recent Chinese moves to block (though called as a ‘technical hold’) of India’s efforts at the UN to declare Hafiz Saeed, chief of the terrorist outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and Jama’at- ud-Da’wah as a ‘global terrorist’, increasing ‘assertive’ stand in the ECS and SCS, etc. tend to derail forward movement in these relations. That China has ‘risen’ and is on its way to becoming a great power, with growing reach beyond its immediate periphery, both land and maritime, is quite clear. China is on course to become, in the coming years, the world’s largest economy in absolute terms. It will also be among the top one to three trading nations in the world. Its defence modernization and reorganization processes continue apace. Notwithstanding its successes, China’s efforts to make friends and influence countries have not always been successful. Aggressive moves and lack of clarity on intent, while amassing military strength have not been the most effective way of doing so. Yet, China’s pursuit of its self-declared and broadly defined “core interests” appears to remain on course. It is in the above perspective that it would be useful to debate the future trajectory of Sino-Indian relations over the next few years.

  • (PLAN) and the South China Sea in Chinese Government's Grand Strateg
    The Place and Role of the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) and the South China Sea in Chinese Government’s Grand Strategy (from 1949 – now) By Tuan Manh Vu A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies at The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Political Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright © 2019 by Tuan Vu 1 Abstract This paper comprehensively assesses the People Liberation Army – Navy (PLAN)’s role and activities, as well as its behaviour in the South China Sea under China’s grand strategy of Peaceful Rising, in which the One Belt One Road (OBOR) initiative and the String of Pearls (SoP) strategy are key components. The PLAN’s behaviour in the South, East China Sea, the Indian Ocean, and its rapid naval modernization can only be conceived and understood in the context of the OBOR. The nature of China’s grand strategy is also analyzed by revealing how China adopted, applied and embedded Captain Mahan’s naval theory as the theorical base for the maritime component of Chinese Grand Strategy. This analysis provides basis to understand future Chinese activities, as well as its rivals, in particular the ASEAN, the U.S.A, Japan and India might react. 2 List of Acronyms OBOR - One Belt One Road initiative SoP - the String of Pearl strategy PLAN – People’s Liberation Army-Navy (of China) SLOC – Sea Lines of Communication A2/AD – Anti-Access/Area Denial strategy ASCM – Anti-Ship Cruise Missile AWAC – Airborne Early Warning and Control
