Security approaches in East Asia: Analyzing counter positions over power balance
.
Asia Oriental es una región que ha estado dividida por dos esferas de influencia, China y la prooccidental representada por países como Japón, la primera una de las más poderosas en cuanto a sus capacidades políticas, económicas y militares. Lograr el balance de poder en un contexto ideológicamente dividido, en el que abundan los conflictos territoriales y hay intereses que se oponen, ha sido una tarea complicada para los Estados. Ha sido ampliamente discutido que el surgimiento de China como un actor hegemónico con capacidades militares robustas, incluida la nuclear, es materia de preocupación para algunos países de la región, entre ellos Japón, y para la configuración de la agenda política asiática de actores occidentales como Estados Uni...

Security approaches in East Asia: Analyzing counter positions over power balance Security approaches in East Asia: Analyzing counter positions over power balance Asia Oriental es una región que ha estado dividida por dos esferas de influencia, China y la prooccidental representada por países como Japón, la primera una de las más poderosas en cuanto a sus capacidades políticas, económicas y militares. Lograr el balance de poder en un contexto ideológicamente dividido, en el que abundan los conflictos territoriales y hay intereses que se oponen, ha sido una tarea complicada para los Estados. Ha sido ampliamente discutido que el surgimiento de China como un actor hegemónico con capacidades militares robustas, incluida la nuclear, es materia de preocupación para algunos países de la región, entre ellos Japón, y para la configuración de la agenda política asiática de actores occidentales como Estados Unidos. El propósito de este artículo es analizar los dos enfoques centrales de seguridad en Asia Oriental y cuáles son las motivaciones y los objetivos de los países para rivalizar en torno al poder. East Asia is a region divided into two main poles of influence; China and the pro-Western nations led by countries such as Japan. The former being one of the most powerful in terms of political, economic, and military capabilities. Trying to balance power in an ideologically bifurcated context, full of territorial conflicts and opposing hegemonic interests, has been a difficult task for States. It has been argued that the rise of China as an economic and financial hegemon with solid military capabilities, including the nuclear one, is a matter of concern not only for countries such as Japan. It has also been a fundamental issue for the Asian political agendas of Western powers such as the United States. Considering this, the aim of this article is to analyze the two central security approaches in East Asia and what motivations and objectives States have to rival against each other.
