Résumé ou extrait
- Présentation de l'éditeur : "China as a Polar Great Power evolved from an initial request from my Antarctic colleagues at the University of Canterbury in 2006 to investigate why China was suddenly spending so much money on Antarctic affairs, to the present in-depth study of the place that the polar regions plays in China's global strategy."
- "China has emerged as a member of the elite club of nations who are powerful at both global poles. Polar states are global giants, strong in military, scientific, and economic terms. The concept of a polar great power is relatively unknown in international relations studies; yet China, a rising power globally, is now widely using this term to categorize its aspirations and emphasize the significance of the polar regions to its national interests. China's focus on becoming a polar great power represents a fundamental re-orientation - a completely new way of imagining the world. China's push into these regions encompasses maritime and nuclear security, the frontlines of climate change research, and the possibility of a resources bonanza. As shown in this book, China's growing strength at the poles will be a game-changer for a number of strategic vulnerabilities that could shift the global balance of power in significant and unexpected ways."
