THE POLITICAL ECONOMY OF CHINA-INDONESIA RELATIONS IN 2021
This book is a continuation of our previous book, The Political Economy of Indonesia-China Relations 2021, which was published last year. The main objective of this book is to understand the different dynamics of Indonesia-China relations in 2021. It attempts to offer an analysis of various important events that occurred in the past year as well as providing recommendations for alternative policies that can be carried out by the government, relevant agencies, and other stakeholders in order to ensure that the relationship between Jakarta and Beijing are mutually beneficial for the two parties. Some of the chapters in this book have been published by international media such as Asia Sentinel, The Diplomat, The Conversation, and The ASEAN Post. We hope this book can open a new window for readers to see the dynamics of Indonesia-China relations from various perspectives. The author hopes that this work can become a reference for students and researchers who are interested in foreign policy issues and the politics of international cooperation.
The Political Economy of China-Indonesia Relations in 2022
2022 was another crucial year for China-Indonesia relations. The cooperation continued to grow and expand in various fields. While political and economic fields remain the arenas where the ties between China and Indonesia predominantly revolved, 2022 witnessed numerous developments in the soft-power fields. These included China’s growing media influence and its public diplomacy towards the Muslim community aimed to augment its positive image among Indonesians.

China considers most Arab League member countries (as well as ...
Taiwan and Southeast Asia
Lee, Chan and their contributors analyse the different kinds of soft power deployed by Taiwan in its bid to strengthen its relations with its neighbours in Southeast Asia. Despite not having formal diplomatic relations with Southeast Asian countries after their diplomatic recognition of the People’s Republic of China decades ago, Taiwan continues to be a key economic and socio-cultural partner for the region at large. Successive administrations in Taiwan from the Chen to Tsai eras have circumvented the long-standing absence of diplomatic recognition with the diffusion of soft power ─ shaping what others want with attractiveness ─ through the utilization of its existing economic and soc...

In the Dragon's Shadow
A timely look at the impact of China’s booming emergence on the countries of Southeast Asia Today, Southeast Asia stands uniquely exposed to the waxing power of the new China. Three of its nations border China and five are directly impacted by its claims over the South China Sea. All dwell in the lengthening shadow of its influence: economic, political, military, and cultural. As China seeks to restore its former status as Asia’s preeminent power, the countries of Southeast Asia face an increasingly stark choice: flourish within Beijing’s orbit or languish outside of it. Meanwhile, as rival powers including the United States take concerted action to curb Chinese ambitions, the region has emerged as an arena of heated strategic competition. Drawing on more than a decade of on-the-ground experience, Sebastian Strangio explores the impacts of China’s rise on Southeast Asia, the varied ways in which the countries of the region are responding, and what it might mean for the future balance of power in the Indo-Pacific.
