Dancing on Bones

The leaders of Russia, China, and North Korea use a distorted version of the history of WWII and the Korean War to shore up popular support at home and justify aggressive foreign policy and expansive military ambitions. Those who dare to challenge the official line are persecuted, silenced, and locked up, while schoolchildren are required to memorize the authorized account. Deeply-reported and drawing on first-hand experience on the ground in all three countries, Dancing on Bones argues that if we want to understand where these three nuclear powers are heading, we must understand the stories they are telling their citizens about the past.

Putin’s “Turn to the East” in the Xi Jinping Era

Rozman, Christoffersen, and a team of expert contributors analyze the evolution of Vladimir Putin’s reorientation to Asia since 2012. When Putin announced a “Turn to the East” in Russian foreign policy upon his return to the presidency, this was to be strategic reorientation emphasizing multilateralism. As the years have passed, however, this has turned into a tight reliance on the bilateral relationship with China. Rozman, Christoffersen, and their team explore how the “Turn” proceeded and developed over the course of a decade, ending by examining the impact of the Ukraine war on Sino-Russian relations. Their analysis focuses on Russia’s perspective, taking into account an extensive range of Russian publications to look at how priorities shifted. While affirming the continued strengthening of ties between Beijing and Moscow, they identify many tensions between them, noting especially Russia’s illusions about the relationship. A comprehensive review of Russian policy toward the Indo-Pacific, which is essential reading for courses on Russian foreign policy and international relations in East Asia.

Permanent Neutrality

This collection examines the theory, practice, and application of state neutrality in international relations. With a focus on its modern-day applications, the studies in this volume analyze the global implications of permanent neutrality for Taiwan, Russia, Ukraine, the European Union, and the United States. Exploring permanent neutrality’s role as a realist security model capable of rivaling collective security, the authors argue that permanent neutrality has the potential to decrease major security dilemmas on the global stage.

洗腦:毛澤東和後毛時代的中國與世界

「洗腦」(brainwashing)的理論原是由美國記者愛德華‧亨特於1950年首度提出,專門為研究與討論中共的思想改造而創立。但冷戰結束後,隨著西方對中共本質認識的日益模糊,洗腦一詞在大眾傳播中被日益泛化,並和專制集權的中共逐漸脫鉤。由文革史學家宋永毅主導、在美國召開的「洗腦:毛澤東和後毛時代的中國與世界」(Brainwashing in Mao's Era of China and Beyond)學術研討會,是一個正本清源的突破。本書為此會議之論文集,由知名漢學家林培瑞作序,主要分為四大部分,收錄二十篇論文,探討的主題充滿了特有的當代性和...
