• Anticipation Is Making Me Wait: The "Inevitability of War" and Deadlines in Cross-Strait Relations , Mulvenon, James
  People\'s Republic of China (PRC) statements asserting the \"inevitability\" of war in the Taiwan Strait and imposing a deadline for resolution of the Taiwan question loom larger as facets of debate over potential conflict between the PRC and Taiwan, particularly with Taipei\'s proposed constitutional revision in 2006 and Beijing\'s hosting of the Olympics in 2008 on the horizon. On the one hand, Beijing may believe that asserting deadlines for resolution of the Taiwan question through nonauthoritative channels is useful psychologically to undermine morale in Taiwan and deter U.S. military intervention. On the other hand, PRC media commentary to the contrary continues to underscore the difficult trade-offs between specificity and flexibility in Beijing\'s policymaking toward Taiwan. On balance, the evidence suggests that Beijing\'s position toward Taiwan (and, by extension, toward the role of the United States in a future conflict) has hardened since President Chen Shui-bian\'s reelection in spring 2004, elevating prospects of a military crisis in the next four years.

• China's Rise in Asia - Promises, Prospects and Implications for the United States , Sutter, Robert G.
  In this Occasional Paper, Dr. Sutter\'s paper argues that China is moving in subtle ways, short of direct confrontation, to increase Chinese influence in Asia relative to that of the US. However, he notes that America\'s strengths in the region remain formidable and long-term. He argues that America should build on its strengths as the \"region\'s economic and security partner of choice\" through greater activism and greater sensitivity to the concerns of Asian countries. The US should also appreciate that China has an interest in maintaining peaceful relations with Washington.

  This seminar introduces students to Chinese foreign policy, arms control, nonproliferation, and security issues. It begins with a brief history of phases in Chinese foreign and security policy and then gives an overview of major theoretical approaches to the subject. These theoretical perspectives are useful in examining a wide range of policy issues, including the relationship between ballistic missile defense and Chinese strategic modernization, the evolution of Chinese arms control policy, the sources of China\\\'s nonproliferation behavior, security trends in the Taiwan Strait, civil-military relations, the Chinese foreign policy process, and the domestic sources of Chinese foreign and security policy.

• Chinese Strategic Thought , Harvard University
  This course is an intensive reading and research course in Chinese strategic thought from the Warring States period to contemporary China. Much of the secondary literature on Chinese strategic thought argues there are key continuities in approaches to war and peace which cut across time and historical context. Mao Zedong, some argue, borrowed freely from Sun Zi's The Art of War. From the mid 1980s on there has been a renewed attention to Sun Zi inside the Chinese military professional education system. Contemporary strategic thinkers in China and on Taiwan refer explicitly to ancient texts when talking about everything from modern revolutionary guerilla warfare to nuclear strategy. The United States Department of Defense is increasingly interested in how traditional strategic concepts from Chinese classics may influence current Chinese approaches to deterrence, crisis management, pre-emption, and deception. Yet few students of Chinese strategic thought have explicated precisely what those elements of continuity are, how influential these have been, or whether there are elements of discontinuity, contestation and debate within a more amorphous and less unified strategic tradition. Any answers to these questions will be relevant to how we analyze contemporary China's conflict behavior. If, indeed, there are clear elements of continuity this suggests that an understanding of the core concepts in a unified Chinese strategic tradition is critical for understanding contemporary China's conflict behavior. If there are multiple traditions, then an interesting question is which traditions does contemporary China draw on and why? If there are clear discontinuities, then this may require both a revision of our understanding of contemporary Chinese approaches to war and peace and an inquiry into the 'sociology' of any misreading of Chinese strategic tradition.

• Chinese Transnational Organized Crime: The Fuk Ching , Finckenauer, James O.
  Drawing upon data from the 2000 Transatlantic Workshop on Human Smuggling at Georgetown University and the work of pre-eminent Asian crime and smuggling researcher, Ko-lin Chin of Rutgers University, Finckenauer describes how the most infamous Chinese gang, Fuk Ching, operates. Highlighting the close relationships between triads and tongs, as well as the loose structure and random violence of Chinese gangs, Finckenauer provides the following conclusions: 1. While Chinese communities in America are fully aware of the problem of Chiense gangs, they are powerless to stop them without better law enforcement on their side. 2. Chinese gang activity rarely registers with the greater U.S. population, except in cases of human smuggling, for which Chinese gangs like Fuk Ching are becoming renowned.

• Deterring Conflict in the Taiwan Strait: The Successes and Failures of Taiwan's Defense Reform and Modernization Program , Swaine, Michael D.
  The Taiwan Strait is one of the two places in the Asian Pacific where a major war could break out; the other place is the Korean Peninsula. For over fifty years, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Republic of China (ROC, or Taiwan) have maintained an uneasy peace across the Strait, punctuated by brief periods of limited conflict or by occasional military displays. This paper examines that program in some detail. The first section looks at the basic objectives of Taiwan’s defense reform and modernization programs and the successes and failures to date. The second section assesses the underlying reasons for those successes and failures. A final section assesses the prospects for the future and the implications for U.S. policy and U.S.–ROC relations.

  In this essay, Professor June Teufel Dreyer reviews the recent literature on the People's Liberation Army's international capabilities, doctrine, and policy role in China. Dreyer points out that while China's military capability is weakened by older and less powerful warships and aircraft, the one area the experts agree the PLA is making progress in is the development of missiles and nuclear weapons. Current research indicates that while the PLA has made good, if uneven, progress in modernizing over the past decade, its force projection capabilities remain limited and are unlikely to allow China to claim the status of regional military power within the next decade.

The author points out that China's new military doctrine "Limited war under high technological conditions" is more assertive, stressing offensive, even preemptive, uses of military power. However, the PLA does not have the wherewithal to carry out the doctrine's intent.China's deficiencies in systems integration, manufacturing propulsion systems, and advanced computer technologies will be the most limiting factors in the PLA's ability to field the weapons and equipment necessary to satisfy strategic requirements.

• The Rise and Descent of "Peaceful Rise" , Suettinger, Robert L.
  A controversial formulation about China\'s emerging global role and responsibilities appears to have been set aside, in part as a result of leadership disagreements. The idea of China\'s \"peaceful rise\" as a responsible and benign global power was introduced into China\'s foreign policy discourse by Party General Secretary Hu Jintao associate Zheng Bijian in November 2003. It caught the interest of many Chinese foreign affairs specialists, becoming the subject of intense and surprisingly open debate. Hu Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao both used the formulation in speeches in December 2003, suggesting that the idea had become an authoritative component of Chinese foreign policy statements. But Jiang Zemin and some members of the Politburo Standing Committee are rumored to have raised objections, and the leadership is said to have decided in April 2004 to drop the formulation in public statements. The concept itself has not been anathematized, however, and it remains the subject of academic debate in China. Still, it has lost much of its policy salience and some of its intellectual luster, a casualty of China\'s more open scholarly environment, the omnipresent Taiwan issue, and leadership jealousies.

• Unproductive Military Posturing , Brown, David G.
  While some saw an increase in military tension across the Strait this quarter, it is more accurate to say that both sides were using military exercises to signal the political resolve behind their policies. One real issue - whether Taiwan will invest more in its own defense - was hotly debated in Taipei, but the Legislative Yuan (LY) took no action. There was considerable speculation about policy differences between Jiang Zemin and Hu Jintao, including over Taiwan. Although Jiang completed his retirement, it remains to be seen whether Hu will make significant adjustments in Taiwan policy. In Taipei, the LY passed proposed constitutional amendments including provisions to use referendums to ratify future amendments and Beijing reacted calmly. With December LY elections in the offing, the standard dichotomy between rapidly expanding cross-Strait economic ties and deadlocked political dialogue continued to hold true this quarter.

He has also researched and published on the relationship between the two nations, taking a firm stance as one of the strongest American anti-revisionists of the 1990s. His view is that the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty is a kind of insurance policy for the two largest economic powers in the world. He finds that the alliance played an important role in winning the Cold War, and will be irreplaceable for stability of the region in the future. In addition, Dr. Auer posits that it is necessity that Japan exercise its right of collective self-defense--a right proscribed under current government policy--in order for Japan to fulfill its responsibilities towards worldwide security under the U.S.-Japan Security Treaty.

• The U.S.-Japan Security Alliance , Osius, Ted
  For more than three decades, the multifaceted alliance between the world\'s two largest and most technologically advanced economies has deterred aggression and provided the bedrock for Asian stability. Now, however, the United States and Japan are reexamining some assumptions underlying their alliance. The Cold War\'s end revealed new sources of potential threat, and Japan\'s national self-confidence has been shaken by a decade of economic stagnation, a highly fluid political situation, and an inadequate institutional structure for crisis management and strategy formulation. Japan is trying to redefine its identity from a nation whose constitution renounces war as a sovereign right to a \"normal\" country involved in UN peacekeeping operations and regional military relationships-a nation likely capable of projecting power beyond its own territory. U.S. unilateralist tendencies and difficulty in sharing decisionmaking authority with Japan hamper the alliance\'s capacity to defend against new threats to stability in Asia.

• Addressing the North Korea Nuclear Challenge , Armacost, Michael H.; Okimoto, Daniel I; Shin, Gi-Wook
  North Korea's renewed bid for nuclear weapons poses an urgent, serious foreign policy challenge to the United States. The current situation -- though it bears a resemblance to the events of 1993-1994 -- is far more dangerous and difficult. North Korea has developed longer-range ballistic missiles; South Korea's growing nationalism has put its U.S. relations on shakier ground; and the United States is distracted by the wars on terrorism and for regime change in Iraq. Despite these challenges, good prospects still exist for a diplomatic resolution to the North Korea problem. North Korea's dire economic circumstances have made it more vulnerable to outside pressure at a time when its neighbor nations and the United States are increasingly concerned about its nuclear ambition. Military means would not only exact huge human casualties but also deepen U.S. estrangement from Seoul and diminish prospects for developing a joint strategy with other Asian powers. Given the urgency and complexity of the current situation, appointment of a special coordinator for North Korean policy could help the administration to formulate a unified policy, sell it to Congress, coordinate it with allies, and present it to Pyongyang. In any event, a key requirement will be real "give and take" negotiations with South Korea to arrive at a coordinated strategy. In the end, Pyongyang must choose: economic assistance and security assurance on the condition that all nuclear activities be abandoned, or dire consequences if nuclear programs continue. Any new agreement, however, must avoid the deficiencies of the 1994 Agreed Framework. It must be more verifiable, less readily reversible, more comprehensive, more politically defensible, and more enforceable through the involvement of North Korea's neighbors.

• Assessment of the North Korean Missile Threat , Wright, David C.
  There is significant concern in the United States about the North Korean ballistic missile program and its ability to threaten US territory and allies. Since the mid-1980s, North Korea has-likely with significant foreign assistance-developed and produced a series of ballistic missiles of increasing range. It now deploys missiles with ranges able to reach all of South Korea and Japan, and is developing longer range missiles. It is also known to have transferred missile technology, as well as complete missiles, to other countries. Assessments of North Korea's military capability often portray North Korea as possessing a long-range nuclear missile capability, or as able to rapidly acquire one. This is not true. The author offers his perspective and analysis of the military capabilities and their influence on the international position of North Korea.

• Finding Our Way Anew to a Denuclearized Koreean Peninsula , Albright, David
  Revelations in October 2002 about North Korea\'s uranium enrichment program have derailed efforts to denuclearize the Korean peninsula. Any such enrichment program would be expected to produce highly enriched uranium, a nuclear weapons-usable explosive material. As a result, North Korea\'s effort to build a plant able to make HEU is equivalent to its earlier efforts to place in operation a plutonium separation plant at Yongbyon. The priority must be finding a way to restore a path to a denuclearized Korean peninsula. As in the earlier crisis over plutonium separation, some advocate isolating North Korea and threatening it militarily to force its compliance with its international commitments not to possess nuclear weapons. However, a military approach is risky and unlikely to succeed in any case without incurring a significant risk of a devastating regional war. However, defining an acceptable diplomatic strategy is difficult. The author makes an attempt to further desepher the reasons behind this problem and make valid recommendations to the policy-makers.

• Korea and Asian Security in the 21st Century , Moon, Chung-in
  National Division, the Korean War, and protracted military conflict on the Korean peninsula have long been considered a product of the Cold War bipolar structure. Likewise,strategic interactions among four major regional actors and the balance of power have dictated the nature of peace and stability on the Korean peninsula. Since the end of the Cold War, however, strategic paremeters in the region have begun to change repidly. Along with the changes, contending visions of future strategic position of a unified Korea have emerged. They include the maintenance of the status quo, aligning with the maritime power, aligning with the continental power, power rejection as a middle power, and a permanent neutral state. The seminar will examine each of these future scenarios on Korea's strategic positioning in the post-unification period and make impact assessments of these scenarious on regional security.Ê

• Perspectives on the Future of the Korean Peninsula , Cha, Victor, Joseph P. Ferguson, and Scott Snyder
  Timely in view of North Korea\'s recent efforts to force a nuclear crisis in the region, this issue of the examines the views of the surrounding powers toward the Korean Peninsula, those of China, Japan, and Russia, and raises critical questions about the future of Northeast Asia. North Korean leaders\' insistence on direct bilateral negotiations with the United States fell on deaf ears in the White House, which would accept no less than direct Chinese participation. The reasons for Washington\'s tough stand, to which the Democratic People\'s Republic of Korea (DPRK) eventually bowed, were straightforward. More than any other nation outside the peninsula, China has strategic interests in the North and influence with Pyongyang. In the ultimate view of the Bush Administration, China must share the frustrations negotiators experience with that country\'s untrustworthy leaders, share responsibility for supporting whatever peace can be fashioned with North Korea, and share in implementing any policies that may be required to stop the North from developing or trading dangerous weapons, technologies, and materials. Other Northeast Asian nations have security interests on the peninsula too, and their direct or indirect participation in any talks is consequential. Japanese nuclear restraint is being tested, and Japanese destroyers may be needed to help enforce any trade bans related to weapons of mass destruction (WMD), should such policies become necessary. Russia would like to be involved, may serve as a broker, and should it recover economically might serve as a balancer down the road to offset other powers located in the region. It is important, therefore, to understand how leaders in Beijing, Tokyo, and Moscow assess developments in Korea. Also important for the purposes of U.S. policymakers is understanding the attitude of these three nations toward the U.S. military presence in South Korea.

• Contact Lenses: The Realist Neglect of Transparency and US-Russian Military Ties , Zisk, Kimberly Marten
  The author is using an example of U.S./Russian military-to-military contacts to demonstrate that realist policy-makers value transparency as an end in itself. First, U.S.-Russian military contact programs through the mid-1990s are described. The author illustrates how officials on both sides view these programs, demonstrating both the variety of realist motives that underline them, and the significance of transparency as one of those motives. Then the article answers a hypothetical argument that this belief if misplaces and the benefits of transparency are illusory - by examining the effects of Soviet-German military-to-military cooperation in the 1920, cooperation which preceded the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union. Finally, the author makes suggestions drawn from these preliminary findings about how academic realists might integrate the search for transparency into their research questions.

• Nuclear Energy Safety Challenges in the Former Soviet Union , Center for Strategic and International Studies Congressional Study Group on Nuclear Energy Safety Challenges in the Former Soviet Union
  Fifteen nuclear reactors of the type that exploded at Chernobyl in April 1986 are still operating in Russia, Ukraine, and Lithuania. The West, concerned about safety of operations, wants these reactors shut down, but the host nations refuse. The electricity these reactors supply is much too important for their economies, so the argument goes. The report defines policy options and procedures to implement those options for the acceptable resolution of the nuclear power safety issues facing the former Soviet Union.

• Russian Organized Crime and Corruption , Center for Strategic and International Studies
  Following up on its highly publicized report of 1997¡ªRussian Organized Crime¡ªthe CSIS Transnational Threats Initiative has taken a new look at the issue and found that, today, the Russian Federation is dominated by a stifling blend of corrupt officials, shady businessmen, and criminals. Russian organized crime continues to strangle legitimate business practices, and more than half the Russian commercial and banking sectors remain under its sway. Russia\'s prospects of embracing true democracy and a free-market economy¡ªprospects that seemed wholly realizable in the early 1990s¡ªnow seem still more remote. Genuine democratic reforms, with the notable exception of the right to vote, are not deeply institutionalized and may be threatened by the Putin regime in the name of order. Political positions, especially those that provide opportunities for embezzlement and other forms of personal gain, are particularly valuable. Members of the so-called oligarchy of politically connected financiers wage constant warfare trying to influence the appointment of politicians favorable to their particular interests. Likewise, most of the Russian press either increasingly depend on the oligarchs or are controlled by the state. Taken together, all these factors degrade the image of democracy in the eyes of most Russians. The beginning of his presidency, therefore, offers Putin two stark choices: he can either consolidate or dismantle the kleptocracy.

• The Russian Military: Power and Policy , Miller. Steven E.; Trenin, Dmitri eds.
  Russian military capacity remains a major consideration for global security even in the post-Soviet era. This book assesses today's Russian military and analyzes its possible future direction. The contributors–experts on the subject from both Russia and the West–consider not only how Russia has built its military capacity but also the policies and doctrines that have shaped Russia's defense posture. They discuss such topics as the downsizing of the Russian military, Russia's use of military power in regional conflicts, and the management of Russia\'s nuclear weapons. For more than a decade, Russian leaders have struggled to formulate security and defense policies that protect Russia's borders and project Russia's influence. The contributors to The Russian Military find that the choices Russian leaders have made have been significantly influenced by the military reforms Russia has attempted to implement since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The protracted and intense debate over military reform has been–and will continue to be–decisive in shaping Russian military capacity.

• Northeast Asian Regional Security: The Role of International Institutions , Inoguchi, Takashi; Stillman, Grant B.
  Northeast Asia is a region where both economic dynamism and power contestation are intensely manifested. Accordingly, some argue, North-East Asian regional security is bound to be volatile. It is a region to which such post-Cold War syndromes as the disappearance of Communism and the salience of ethnic conflicts do not apply. Because of these characteristics, others argue, North-East Asian regional security is not likely to experience much progress in terms of the promotion of common agendas based on institution building, whether it be in security, economic, or political realms. In this volume academics from the region develop their views of North-East Asian regional security and attempt to see how much can be done in terms of confidence and institution building. They discuss major issues of institution building schemes, national unification, and non-proliferation.

• Security and Arms Control in Northeast Asia , Yuan, Jing-dong
  This course introduces the basic principles of security, arms control, and nonproliferation and applies these concepts to the Northeast Asian region. The first part of the course presents some of the basic arms control concepts, describes the existing international organizations and regimes, provides a brief historical overview of the U.S.-Soviet arms control negotiation, and discusses contemporary issues in nuclear, chemical, biological and missile proliferation and international nonproliferation efforts. The second half of the course surveys arms control and nonproliferation issues in Northeast Asia, including the challenges of missile proliferation, missile defenses, and the evolving security dynamics in the region. It will review in detail the security and arms control policies of the major powers in the region and discuss the impact of their interactions on regional peace and stability. The central focus of the course is on preventing the spread of weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, chemical and biological weapons) and their delivery systems (ballistic and cruise missiles). The principal objective of the course is to give students a better understanding of the politics of arms control and nonproliferation as well as nonproliferation challenges such as export controls and verification in a changing international security environment. The course is also designed to cope with proliferation problems and the ways that arms control can contribute to national and regional security. A secondary objective is to introduce to students some of the literature and sources of information about security, arms control and nonproliferation. You will learn how and where to look when you have a question about nearly any spect of this topic. And finally, the course will help students to develop and improve their analytical skills, in particular their ability to distill vast amounts of information quickly into data that is useful for practical business and policy analysis.

• The Future of U.S.-Korea-Japan Relations , Kim, Tae-hyo and Glosserman, Brad
  The North Korean nuclear stalemate poses a stark challenge to tripartite security relations among the United States, South Korea, and Japan. How the North Korean issue is managed will redefine the security relationship among the three countries. In particular, how and to what extent the United States, South Korea, and Japan collaborate in the six-party talks (along with China and Russia) will demonstrate whether the trilateral process can play a constructive role in managing the security environment in Northeast Asia. In this volume, specialists from the three countries examine: how the security environment and state interests drive security relations among the United States, South Korea, and Japan; the impact of mutual economic collaboration on security cooperation; how ideological and cultural ties can bind a security community; the impact of domestic politics and public opinion on foreign policies (and vice versa); and how trilateral cooperation has been instrumental in dealing with the Korean Peninsula nuclear crisis. This book does not argue for stronger security ties among the three countries based solely on a shared understanding of the threats posed by North Korea. Nor does it look toward containment of a rising China or resurgent Russia for its strategic rationale. Rather, the authors argue for broadening the foundation on which the three nations¡¯ ties rest. A better understanding of the complex weave of interests and values that binds the United States, South Korea, and Japan will stabilize the relationships and make them more resilient and adaptable to future developments.

The course will identify potential flashpoints over which future conflict might potentially erupt, such as Taiwan or the Korean Peninsula, and consider what role the US might play in either initiating or responding to these. Finally, it will examine the implications of the US-led campaign against terrorism, both for East Asian security in general and for the future of the American regional presence in particular.

• New Powers, Old Patterns: Dangers of the Naval Buildup in the Asia Pacific Region , Wallace, Michael D. and Meconis, Charles A.
  This paper addresses the issue of the naval arms buildup in the Asia Pacific region and the frequently-expressed fears that it might turn into an all-out arms race. The authors find that although the naval buildup has not yet turned into a full-scale arms race throughout the region, a) there is a genuine naval arms race already occurring between the PRC and Taiwan; b) the historical precursors of an arms race are now in place throughout Northeast Asia; and, c) there is a clear danger of an inter-ASEAN naval arms race. The paper concludes by emphasizing the need to put in place official mechanisms to enhance cooperative maritime security, consisting of a combination of confidence building and risk reduction measures together with multinational naval cooperation leading toward full-scale maritime security regimes.

• Transnational Security in the Asia Pacific , Australian National University
  This course focuses on non-military, transboundary threats to national security. It begins by considering changing ideas about the meaning of security and the emergence of a so-called "new security agenda". This agenda extends the definition of security from its traditional military focus to non-military, non-state transnational threats.Through a series of case studies covering terrorism, money laundering, people smuggling, environmental change and access to natural resources, infectious disease and drug trafficking, students are introduced to the diversity of such threats in the Asia-Pacific region. Their cross-cutting, cross border impacts pose challenges to national governments and regional organisations in implementing response strategies. In examining these challenges emphasis is given to the role of co-coordinating diplomatic, military, law enforcement, national security and intelligence resources in intra- and inter-state co-operative mechanisms. The final part of the course examines a number of mechanisms.

  In this issue of the "NBR Analysis," Dr. Michael D. Swaine, senior associate and codirector of the China Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, with assistance from Loren H. Runyon, senior intern at NBR, outlines the ballistic missile capabilities and development programs of various Asian states. He examines the role of ballistic missiles in each state's force structure, strategy, and doctrine, and considers the reactions of each to proposals for U.S. national missile defense and possible regional theater missile defense systems. Dr. Swaine concludes that these developments have significant implications for the Asian security environment and for U.S. political and military interests over the course of the next decade.
