Beyond Compliance will be an invaluable resource for Asian security specialists and students of Chinese foreign policy." -- Jeffrey T. Checkel, Department of Political Science * University of Oslo *
"This superb study of China's participation in international organizations fills a curious but important void in the secondary literature on Chinese foreign policy. Despite China's rise and full emergence on the world stage, there has been a remarkable absence of book-length studies of the People's Republic of China's participation in intergovernmental organizations. Now Ann Kent's
Beyond Compliance more than fills the void. This is a work of major significance that will become the staple on the subject for many years." --
Journal of Asian Studies"Kent's discussion is well written, and provides a clear and thorough overview of the detailed and complex material on which she relies." --
