(2011). Russian-Chinese Convergence and Central Asia,
in Journal of Geopolitics no. 4, vol. 16
.Routledge.p. 865-901.The article argues that since the mid-1990s, China's and Russia's strategic outlooks have gradually been converging. The two great powers have incrementally shed their mutual apprehensions and started a comprehensive and multifaceted cooperation in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO). In this sense, they have initiated a new geopolitical script around Central Asia. As their mutual interests hold sway over US influence regionally, questions remain on whether specific interests are compatible, or harbour new rivalries. [url] - Wilhelmsen, Julie
