PLIR 4500: China's National Security: Challenges and Statecraft (Fall 2020)

​The first part of this course introduces the Chinese view of national security interests as well as the structure and process of China’s national security decision-making. The second part discusses in depth the nature and sources of several issues that China has long perceived as enduring national security challenges, including social unrest and political violence within China, sovereignty and territorial disputes between China and different regional players, and, of course, the US-China strategic competition. The third part focuses on evaluating China’s statecraft to deal with these challenges. Specifically, we seek to understand the rationale behind China’s domestic social and information control strategies, the conditions under which China is more or less likely to resort to military force (or aggressive behaviors in general), the strategic logic and effectiveness of China’s increasing reliance on economic and institutional statecraft, and the guiding principles that underlie China’s grand strategy (if there is any).
