What does the Indo-Pacific mean for China? This talk seeks to answer this question by delving into recent analyses from Chinese experts. While China is undeniably a major stakeholder in the region, the perspectives of its experts on the Indo-Pacific have received little attention in English-language publications, often dismissed as mere echoes of official rhetoric. However, a closer examination reveals a more nuanced debate within Chinese policy circles about a construct widely viewed as an effort to contain China’s rise. A dominant perspective among Chinese analysts characterizes the Indo-Pacific as the “Nato-ization of the Asia-Pacific”. However, some experts emphasize the diversity in Indo-Pacific strategies adopted by various countries, from Asia to Europe, suggesting that these variations must be acknowledged when assessing the region’s dynamics and China’s policy options. The talk reviews Chinese experts’ proposed responses to the array of Indo-Pacific strategies and the visions of regional order they imply, ranging from attempts to shape the concept to deploying wedge tactics against these alliances.
