China-Russia Strategic Alignment in International Politics Korolev Alexander
Post-Cold War China-Russia strategic cooperation has displayed significant development and become an increasingly important factor in contemporary international politics. How closely aligned are China and Russia? However, there has been no theory-grounded framework and corresponding measurements that would allow an accurate and systematic assessment of the level of China-Russia alignment and its progress over time.
This book bridges area studies and International Relations literature to develop a set of objective criteria to measure and explain the development of strategic alignment in post-Cold War China-Russia relations. How to define and measure strategic alignments between states? It establishes that on a range of criteria, China-Russia alignment is moving towards a full-fledged alliance.
It is solid and comprehensive and continues to show a consistent incremental upward trend.
