Extract
This book has been several years in the making. The research and writing process was interrupted by many other research projects, two family moves, and a public service leave during which I served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs. The views expressed in the book are purely my own and do not represent the views of the U.S. government or the U.S Department of State. Certain sections of the book are culled from articles that appeared in the journals Asian Security (vol. 1, no. 1, January 2005) and International Security (vol. 23, no. 4, spring 1999).
For comments and research assistance, I am grateful to David Bachman, Gary J. Bass, Yan Bennett, Chen Jian, Chen Zhiming, Ja Ian Chong, Milton Es-man, Taylor Fravel, Aaron Friedberg, Lily Fu, Michael Glosny, James Goldgeier, Avery Goldstein, Steven Goldstein, Todd Hall, Hope Harrison, Yinan He, Serene Hung, Samuel P. Huntington, Robert Jervis, Alastair Iain Johnston, Peter Katzenstein, Carl Kaysen, Andrew Kennedy, Jonathan D. Kirshner, Li Danhui, Li Hong, Adam Liff, Jennifer Lind, Liu Dongsheng, Oriana Mastro, Niu Jun, Barry Posen, Lucian Pye, Alan Romberg, Stephen Peter Rosen, Robert Ross, Richard Samuels, Randall Schweller, Adam Segal, Shen Zhihua, Jack L. Snyder, Christopher Twomey, Stephen Van Evera, Lynn White, Allen Whiting, Xu Xin, Dali Yang, Suisheng Zhao, two anonymous reviewers, the department of Politics at Princeton University, the faculty and fellows at the Security Studies Program at MIT, the helpful staff at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Archives in Beijing, and my many students in China’s Foreign Relations and International Relations of East Asia at Cornell, Princeton, and MIT. Chuck Myers at Princeton University Press has been an enormous source of ideas, encouragement, and editorial suggestions. It is easy to see why the press is a leader in the field. Linda Truilo and Terri O’Prey did a very fine job editing the final manuscript for the Press. I also thank the independent editor Jennifer Camille Smith for offering expert advice even when she was very busy and for motivating me to move this from draft manuscript to final product. I am grateful to the Smith Richardson Foundation for financial support for my archival research in China in 2004. I apologize to all of those many people who helped me over the years but whom I neglected to mention here.
