Abstract
This Handbook addresses the key questions surrounding US–China relations: what are the historical and contemporary contexts that underpin this complex relationship? How has the strategic rivalry between the two evolved? What are the key flashpoints in their relationship? What are the key security issues between the two powers? The international contributors explore the historical, political, economic, military, and international and regional spheres of the US–China relationship. The topics they discuss include human rights, Chinese public perception of the United States, US–China strategic rivalry, China's defence build-up and cyberwar. Students and scholars will benefit from the accessible style of the book, particularly as it covers the key debates in the US–China relationship. Policy-makers will also find the original analysis to be of interest.
