Savic, Ivan, author. Uncertainty, Threat, and International Security / Ivan Savic, Zachary C. Shirkey. Uncertainty, Threat, and International Security [Place of publication not identified] : Taylor & Francis, 2017. ©2017 1 online resource (180 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Description based on: online resource; title from PDF title page (Taylor & Francis, viewed May 10, 2023). The rise of China is changing the strategic landscape globally and regionally. How states respond to potential threats posed by this new power arrangement will be crucial to international relations for the coming decades. This book builds on existing realist and rationalist concepts of balancing, bandwagoning, commitment problems, and asymmetric information to craft explanations about how states respond when faced with potential threats. Specifically, the book explores the role different types of uncertainty play in potential balancing situations. Particular focus is given to the nature of the rising state's actions, the balance of forces, and the value of delay. These concepts are analysed and illustrated through a series of case studies on Europe in the 1930s as well as the present-day Southeast Asia, looking at great powers such as Britain and France, but also a wide range of smaller powers including Poland, Yugoslavia, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Includes bibliographical references and index. Introduction-Threats and the Challenges of Uncertainty -- Chapter 1-Balancing as a Commitment Problem -- Chapter 2-Balancing and Buck-Passing: A Dynamic Model with Uncertainty -- Chapter 3-Balancing and Buck-Passing: Western Europe in the 1930s -- Chapter 4-To Bandwagon or Hide: A Theoretical Examination of the Alternatives to Balancing -- Chapter 5-To Bandwagon or Hide: East Central Europe before World War Two -- Chapter 6-Balancing and Bandwagoning by Other Means: How the Outbreak of War Affects States' Responses to Threats -- Chapter 7-The Rise of China: Will States Balance, Bandwagon, or Hedge in the South China Sea Today? -- Conclusion.
