Description

This title joins a rapidly growing body of important literature that combines history and international relations theory to create new perspectives on East Asian political and strategic behavior. The book explores the strategic and institutional dynamics of international relations in East Asian history when imperial China was the undisputed regional hegemon, focusing in depth on two central aspects of Chinese hegemony at the time: the grand strategies China and its neighbours adopted in their strategic interactions, and the international institutions they engaged in to maintain regional order - including but not limited to the tribute system.
