Abstract

In exploring China’s new approach to conflict deterrence and management, this paper evaluates Chinese foreign policy toward the flashpoint of the Taiwan Strait. Second, China's growing economic and political power has prioritized national reconciliation over ideological reconciliation. This approach can be called a "nationalist" foreign policy. Thirdly, China has become confident in its ability to coordinate with relevant powers regarding its various interests. This approach can be called "sharing international crises" with major powers. These factors clearly indicate the escalation of the conflict. In order to escape from such a situation, this paper highlights all the possible solutions based on the models designed for conflict resolution. Theories of the conflict have also been used to identify the root causes of the issue to make the solutions more effective.
