Summary
This book mainly explored the driving forces and evolvement of Myanmars China policy since 1988 by adopting a neo-classical realist apporach, an emerging theoretical paradigm aiming at analyzing states foreign behaviour by connecting systemic and unit variables which refers to external environments and domestic restraints respectively. It is the first book that seeks to give a theoretical explanation of Myanmars diplomacy, thereby bridging the gap from basic research to the deep one with theories. It also introduced the concept of strategic preference and argued that the competing strategic preference that the Burmese leaders have, namely "integration" and "isolation", determines Myanmars responses to China in the Post-Cold War era, which not only demonstrates the neo-classical realism as an useful instrument of looking into states foreign policy and deepens the understanding on Myanmar-China relations. The main content of this book is divided into seven parts, in which the first chapter introduces the background, the present study on Myanmars China policy and Chinas Myanmar policy, the analytical framework, and the arrangement of the content. Chapter 2 focuses on the roots and changes of Myanmars competing strategic preference as well as its influences on Myanmars foreign policy. The following four chapters examine the international pressures and benefits imposed by systemic imperatives, and Burmese leaders specific strategic preference since 1988, and investigate Myanmars policy towards China in different periods. Finally, it provides a comprehensive conclusion that outlines and reviews the origins and evolution of Myanmars China policy, and predicts its future directions. This book is suitable for the graduates and experts who are interested in international relations, the Asian studies and neo-classical realism in particular, and Myanmar politics and foreign relations, as well as Chinas relation with neighboring cou ntries
