Axis of convenience

Description:

"Few International Relationships have provoked such polarized views as the "strategic partnership" between China and Russia. Both nations portray it as the very model of positive-sum cooperation, offering the promise of a more equitable world order. But many Western observers see it as an alliance of authoritarian states that threatens the global leadership of the United States and the dismantling of democratic norms. In Axis of Convenience, Bobo Lo shows that the true picture is more complex than such interpretations would suggest." "Axis of Convenience evaluates the current state and future prospects of the Sino-Russian relationship against the back-drop of a disordered global environment."--Jacket.
