Essay / China Threat Case Study - 1214
COUNTER-ARGUMENTS Economic Stability The rise of China will not pose a threat to Asian stability. It appears that China's peaceful rise is seen by other Asian countries as a potential economic threat to the region. But on the contrary, China does not pose a threat as it is perceived. China, in reality, is just another ordinary state making waves to regain its lost pride after being materially humiliated, defeated and humiliated by Imperial Japan – and the West – in East Asia. the pre-modern East. Its peaceful rise to global prominence is ironically the result of a hybrid balance between capitalism and socialism, which some experts and academics still struggle to explain. In my counterargument, I will briefly explain China's peaceful rise and threat perception in the Asia-Pacific region. China's main objective is to build and project soft power diplomacy with more emphasis on developing countries in order to share its wealth and promote a harmonious and peaceful society. China does not intend to pursue an expansionist approach or become hegemonic in the Asian region or globally. To support the counterargument that China does not pose an economic threat to Asian stability, I will demonstrate how China experiences the same economic prosperity and disadvantages as China. any other Asian state. For example, due to soaring energy prices, transportation costs for moving goods from one place to another are increasing, and the difficulties of a dispersed supply chain are encouraging some Chinese companies that had previously outsourced components in Southeast Asia to outsource their associated research. and development and operational activities in China to other Asian states. As a result, processing-related imports have declined from more than 40 percent of China's total imports...... middle of paper ...... the challenge of unrestricted global economic domination of United States threatens the United States and its allies in Asia. The arguments detailed in this essay that China's rise poses a threat to Asia's stability are far stronger than the counterarguments. For example, the continued rise of China could begin to foster the idea of neo-Bismarckism and global hegemony. With a continued alliance with Russia and North Korea and a reduced US military, achieving long-term global domination will be easy. If China continues to lick its fingers over its “gentle emergence as a superpower,” it could be a matter of time before a new leader comes along with a new vision and ideology to divide and rule. Global supremacy is addictive in itself. Therefore, the United States and its regional allies should contain and restrict China in order to maintain the stability of Asia before it becomes too powerful to restrict it..
