The politics of economic exchange: carrots and sticks in Taiwan-China-US relations/ Steve Chan - 2006

This paper is motivated by three ideas. First analyses of interstate relations have over emphasized the role of hardpower. Second these analyses have privileged the role of the state while not giving civil society sufficient attention. Third economic carrots and sticks are two sides of the same coin and their effects are in part contingent on the alignment of domestic interests and influence.
