Today @ 1:00 PM ET - China as a Hegemonic Challenge?
[link removed]
Many U.S. foreign policy analysts argue for a military buildup in Asia based on the claim that, absent strong American action, China will assert itself as the dominant hegemonic power in Asia. A hostile foreign power dominating Asia would clearly be against America’s interests. But we cannot simply assume that even China could dominate a region of the size, wealth, and diversity of Asia. A deeper understanding of China’s capability to actually exert dominance in Asia is critical to understanding what America’s stance in the region should be. This panel will explore the challenges to any power that would seek hegemony in Asia, how they relate to China’s goals and capacities, and the level of U.S. military investment needed to prevent such a hegemon from emerging.
