تحول القوة في منطقة شرق آسيا بين الصعود الصيني والمأزق الياباني

Abstract EN

Based on realism theory, this paper provides an explanation of the importance of power in international relations, by analyzing the behavior of China and Japan in the east Asian region, and also the behavior of the United States of America towards them as the dominant superpower under the current international system.

it answers the problem of the transfer of power from the west to the east, and in return supports the assumption that the great powers seek to possess relative power as much as possible.

the paper also emphasizes that the state should not undermine or renounce its offensive power, as with Japan, because that will put it in front of a dilemma of the growing the power of neighboring states that seek to achieve regional hegemony, such as China.

therefore, all of these transformations show that international relations are a complex field and should not be reduced to a specific ideal field.
