Scholars of great power politics have traditionally focused on examining a reigning power’s military containment of a challenging power. In direct contrast, Compound Containment demonstrates that these conventional studies are flawed without a sound understanding of the multilayered aspects of containment strategy in great power politics. Since economic capacity and military power are intimately linked to one another, countering a challenging power requires addressing both economic and military dimensions. Nonetheless, this nexus of security and economy in a reigning power’s response to a challenging power cannot be explained by traditional theories that dominate research in international security. Author Dong Jung Kim fills a gap in the scholarship on great power competition by investigating when a reigning power will make its military containment of a challenging power “compound” by simultaneously employing restrictive economic measures. Its main theoretical claims are corroborated by an analysis of key historical cases of reigning power-challenging power competition. This book also offers policy prescriptions for the United States by examining whether the United States is in a position to complement military containment of China with restrictive economic measures. 2022-04-04T14:09:36Z 2022-04-04T14:09:36Z 2022 book 9780472132980 9780472039005 9780472129942 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/53689 eng application/pdf Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International 9780472902804.pdf University of Michigan Press University of Michigan Press 10.3998/mpub.11622137 10.3998/mpub.11622137 e07ce9b5-7a46-4096-8f0c-bc1920e3d889 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9780472132980 9780472039005 9780472129942 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) University of Michigan Press 212 Ann Arbor Knowledge Unlatched open access
