Abstract

This Handbook looks at how China is governed, how its domestic political system functions and the critical issues that it currently faces. Governed by the world's largest political party in the world's longest-ruling Communist regime, China is undergoing a transitional period of rapid economic and social development. How this period is managed will have significant implications for the Chinese state and its population concerning China's governance structures and economy, as well as the country's justice, public health, education and internal/external security concerns. This transition to a modern state is not without its challenges - particularly in terms of how the Chinese state deals with diverse issues such as social inequality, corruption, separatism, increasing individualism and political reform. China's governance and domestic politics also have possible major global consequences, especially in the context of China's continued rise within the international system.This Handbook will improve understandings of the core national dynamics of this rise and, as levels of international interdependence with China increase, can offer vital insights concerning China's domestic attributes. Gaining a better knowledge of China's internal workings can also help readers to better appreciate the multiple and varied problems that China's leaders will face in the coming decades. Critically, many of the core internal issues facing China also have potential external repercussions, principally in terms of rising social unrest, nationalism, environmental degradation, resource shortages and attitudes towards globalization. This book covers these issues and will help readers to fully comprehend China's ongoing contemporary global significance.

Abstract

"India's contemporary rise to prominence will significantly impact upon geopolitics in the coming decades and is a key pillar in the widely anticipated Asian 21st century. As India's stature continues to increase across Asia and the world, appreciating which interests and principles structure her international interaction has never been more important. Focusing upon the country's contemporary emergence as an economic, military and now diplomatic powerhouse, this Edited Book rigorously and informatively sets out the core - and wide-ranging - elements, relationships and challenges essential to conceptualising and analysing this rise. These factors relate not only to consolidating India's pre-eminence within South Asia - as the foundation of its great power claims - but also how it interacts with the world's other great powers in the guise of China, Japan, Russia, France and the United States, and how New Delhi is able to articulate its global vision on the world stage. Prestige, rivalry and leadership permeate these interactions, especially as India asserts its influence and interests concerning issues ranging from the functioning of trade in South Asia, handling border disputes and conceiving of the Indian Ocean Region to climate policy, foreign aid and managing the Covid-19 pandemic. India's future stature will depend on how it deals with these and other concerns"-- Provided by publisher.
