Producción científica: Contribución a una revista › Artículo de revista › revisión exhaustiva

Resumen

El sistema de alianzas es el único elemento del poder de Estados Unidos que no ha disminuido en términos relativos a lo largo de las últimas décadas del ascenso de China. La brecha se ha reducido entre la potencia hegemónica y la potencia ascendente en los campos económico, tecnológico y militar. Sin embargo, los intentos recientes de Estados Unidos de utilizarlo para contrarrestar la creciente influencia internacional de China han dado resultados mixtos. Este artículo sostiene que Estados Unidos tiene más éxito en dar forma a las respuestas de sus aliados cuando emplea estrategias proactivas en lugar de respuestas pasivas.
