Contemporary Asia in the World

In recent years, China and the United States have each turned economic interdependence into an instrument of coercion, using their dominant positions in international trade to push states and firms to comply with their political goals. What is distinctive about this form of economic pressure, and how can other countries fight back? This groundbreaking book explores the weaponization of economic interdependence and its implications for the international order through a wealth of new and original data on China's economic statecraft. Victor D. Cha, Ellen Kim, and Andy Lim examine how and in what ways the United States and China have deployed economic coercion, focusing on China's extensive use of this tactic over the past three decades. They analyze a vast data set that includes more than 600 cases of China's economic bullying of states, companies, and individuals in North America, Asia, and Europe. Cha, Kim, and Lim propose a multilateral strategy of "collective resilience" to counter intimidation, showing how targeted states can band together, leverage trading relationships, and threaten retaliation. Synthesizing new insights from unique trade data with international security expertise, this timely book sheds new light on how China exercises economic power--and it provides a playbook to deter bullies and rebalance the global order.

Resistance Through Collective Resilience

China's Weaponization of Trade

Indo-Pacific Focus

This book provides an in-depth analysis of the new developments in China’s energy cooperation with Asian and African countries under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) over the past decade. It seeks to analyze the driving forces, new progress, and main challenges of energy cooperation between China and BRI route states. This book adopts a multi-dimensional perspective to analyze China’s energy cooperation with BRI route states, combining economic, political analysis, cultural narrative, and environmental governance. In contrast to traditional books that focus solely on energy security, this book combines economic and cultural dimensions, incorporating a broader framework.&nbsp;
This book offers new perspectives on studying BRI energy cooperation. First, it emphasizes both China’s and BRI route states’ roles in BRI energy cooperation and highlights the common interests and mutual benefits between the two sides. It shows how China and BRI route states benefit from the energy cooperation. Second, the book also examines energy competition, particularly in energy infrastructure, between China, the United States, India, and Japan in Asian and African states, and how the competition could reshape the global energy infrastructure. Third, the book discusses environmental governance under BRI energy cooperation and reveals how China and BRI route states promote governance capabilities in the energy sector. &nbsp;
The book has a vast readership and is suitable for academics and policy-minded readers. Scholars of international relations, energy policy, Asian and African studies, the BRI, and Chinese foreign policy will find the insightful views presented in the book valuable for their research. Policymakers and diplomats will benefit from its practical analyses, particularly in energy cooperation and competition.&nbsp;

China’s BRI Energy Cooperation

Reshaping Global Energy Infrastructure

Emerging technologies such as autonomous vessels, artificial intelligence, and alternative fuels are revolutionizing the way we operate at sea. This volume examines how advancements in information technology and biotechnology are influencing the evolution of ocean law and policy. These technologies, including blockchain, satellite and submarine cable communications, nuclear power at sea, seabed mining, underwater archaeology, marine genetics, and decarbonization, are changing the architecture of ocean governance. This volume explores both the opportunities and challenges these advancements pose to the law of the sea, which is evolving to adapt to ever accelerating rates of global change. Looking forward, the book considers the role of the law of the sea in the future of ocean governance. This title is also available as open access on Cambridge Core.

Palgrave Advances in Criminology and Criminal Justice in Asia

The book explores the concept of counter-narratives to terrorism within the context of Pakistan’s unique socio-political, cultural, and historical experiences. It provides actionable insights to combat extremism, focusing on the role of ideology, socio-economic reforms, and community engagement in reducing radicalization.
As a frontline state in the global War on Terror, Pakistan deals with the rise of terrorist groups such as the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and their shocking use of suicide terrorism. Despite military achievements, enduring peace remains elusive due to ideological and social origins of extremism. This book addresses the pressing necessity for counter-narratives—intellectual, cultural, and strategic outlines to challenge extremist ideologies and promote peace within and beyond the borders.

Over the past twenty-five years, he has worked across operational and strategic policing domains, including counter-terrorism, criminal intelligence, and policy development. He has served with Pakistan’s National Counter Terrorism Authority (NACTA),&nbsp;Additional Director Anti Money Laundering Unit&nbsp; (FIA), and provincial police Training Directorate, contributing to policy development, law enforcement, national security, and community resilience initiatives. Dr. Rao holds a Ph.D. in Terrorism Studies and is recognized for his pioneering field research on suicide terrorism, including extensive interviews with failed suicide bombers and former militants. His academic work bridges empirical inquiry with critical theory, engaging with themes such as biopolitics, necropolitics, radical ideology, and de-radicalization. Beyond policing, he serves as a researcher, trainer, and policy advisor in the domains of counter-extremism, digital radicalization, and the development of sustainable peace narratives in South Asia.

Palgrave Histories of Policing, Punishment and Justice

This book provides a comprehensive overview of police governance in England and Wales. This volume (I) starts from the Anglo Saxon period onwards. Volume II covers reform and development of tripartite governance from 1979-2025. These volumes analyse the key mechanisms and procedures that have sought to provide for the control and accountability of police organisations to external bodies and the means through which the conduct and work performed by police personnel is regulated internally. They discuss and evaluate the key debates and developments that have underpinned changes to police governance and the social, economic and political context within which these have emerged. They bring together a wide variety of material that relates to historical and contemporary aspects of policing. They draw upon primary (as well as secondary) source material including the use of historical documents for the early chapters. They speak to students taking courses in criminology and criminal justice studies and also those specialising in policing and to practitioners.

Gender, Justice and Legal Feminism

The edited volume explores the unique positionality of girls as they experience gender-based violence. While girl children are often placed under the umbrella of womanhood, their location at the intersection of femalehood and childhood places them in a unique position with regards to various forms of exploitation and violence. Feminist theories, including feminist legal theory, provide pertinent avenues to explore girls’ positionalities, yet girl children should also be contextualized in relation to their current lived experiences. This book firstly explores the cultural and visual portrayal of girlhood and its relationship with gender-based violence, and secondly provides case studies of specific violations of human rights encompassing sexual violence and exploitation. It considers legal, social and economic avenues to support girls in reclaiming their identity, dignity and bodily integrity.

Girls’ Positionalities at the Intersection of Identity and Violence

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.

Hegelian Sources

Marx's Capital

International Political Theory

This collection reviews Hegel in relation to the key themes of history, politics and philosophy. It shows how Hegel is a historical thinker, whose theories are
developed via a philosophical consideration of historical development at a number of levels. Hegel’s expertise in the history of philosophy leads him to
recognize the distinctiveness of the present, while building upon philosophical predecessors. This perspective sheds light on Hegel’s distinctive reading of the
political, which is both insightful and timely. Hegel’s reading of political economy emerges out of his conception of modernity and remains relevant to contemporary conceptions of civil society. Likewise Hegel’s focus upon the international remains of great moment in that he shows the interplay between internal and external forms of sovereignty. Hegel’s global perspective on international politics remains of relevance today and it bears upon his understanding of internal state sovereignty and history. This volume ends with a synoptic reading of Hegel today, which reviews him critically in the light of his problematic reading of race, sex and Eurocentrism. The essays in this volume reflect Gary Browning’s engagement with Hegel over a number of years, and, collectively, they show how Hegel’s political theory is linked to his reading of history and philosophy, and they make a case for the continued relevance of Hegel’s political and international theory.
