| Abstract | "Techno-Geopolitics explores contemporary US-China relations and the future of global cyber-security through the prisms of geopolitics and financial-technological competition. It puts forward a new conceptual framework for an emerging field of digital statecraft and discusses a range of key issues including the controversies around 5G technology, policy regulations over TikTok and WeChat, the emergence of non-traditional espionage, and potential trends in post-pandemic foreign policy. Analysing the ramifications of the ongoing US-China trade standoff, this book maps the terrain of technological war and the race for global technological leadership and economic supremacy. It shows how China's technological advancements have not only been the key to its national economic development but have also been the core focus of US intelligence. Further, it draws on US-China counter-intelligence cases sourced from the US Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to explore emerging patterns and techniques of China's espionage practice. A cutting-edge study on the future of statecraft, this volume will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of international relations, security and intelligence studies, information technology and artificial intelligence, political science, especially US foreign policy and China studies. It will also be of great interest to policymakers, career bureaucrats, security and intelligence practitioners, technology regulators, and professionals working with think tanks and embassies"-- Provided by publisher. |
