The Chinese government has frequently been criticized for propping up antidemocratic governments. This book investigates the rise of China as an emerging authoritarian power. By comparing Chinas bilateral relations to three Asian developing countries Burma, Cambodia and Mongolia it examines how China targets specific groups of actors in autocracies versus nonautocracies. It illustrates how the Chinese noninterference policy translates into support for incumbent leaders in autocratic countries and how the Chinese government has thereby profited from exploiting secretive decision making in autocracies to realize its own external interests such as achieving access to natural resources. In a statistical analysis of the patterns of Chinese external cooperation and their impact on the survival of autocratic leaders, the book finds some evidence that China is more likely to target autocracies with economic cooperation. However, only some forms of bilateral interaction are found to increase the prospect of survival for autocratic leaders.This important contribution to the understanding of both external factors of authoritarian endurance and Chinas foreign relations, a field of study still lacking systematic investigation, will be of great interest to students and researchers in Development Studies, Asian Studies, International Relations, and International Political Economy.
