Us Taiwan Policy - Constructing the Triangle

Zusatztext "Based on extensive original archival research! Tunsju deftly employs constructivism's emphasis on identity! norms! and discourse analysis to the development of the US positions on Taiwan over the past half century or more. He carries the narrative forward in a clear exposition while maintaining a sophisticated sense of the theoretical underpinnings of constructivism. The work serves as an effective! illuminating case study of constructivism! as well as lending insight into the perspectives of US policy makers dealing with Taiwan as China and the US have moved from hostility to a policy of constructive engagement." - J.A.
