In my dissertation, "Getting a New Blanket: China's Conceptualization of Security in the Post-Deng Xiaoping Era," I examine the debate of what form the PRC's rise will take in the future. In grappling with this issue, I look at how this rising power is defining its national security threats. Consequently, I approached this dissertation with the goal of examining of how the PRC leadership is defining---and even not defining---its national security threats. While traditional, realist/materialist approaches to China's definition of threats to national security have merit, so too do non-traditional, constructivist approaches. As such, I seek to examine the influence that national security ideas and theories have had in influencing contemporary PRC national security policies. Given the value and potential impact of such a theory on a state's national security policies, I chose to examine whether the PRC scholarly community is cognizant of the content of these theories, how widespread and influential they are among academicians and policy analysts, and whether there is an observable influence of these theories on PRC national security policies. The findings reveal that although the PRC's scholars are cognizant of the issues in COPRI's Comprehensive Security, the PRC leaders' national security policies are still predominantly attributed to traditional security theory, definitions, and dynamics. The findings also reveal that while the PRC is exhibiting constructivist tendencies by securitizing non-traditional security issues, the rationales behind these securitizations are borne of realist purposes.

520 $a In my dissertation, "Getting a New Blanket: China's Conceptualization of Security in the Post-Deng Xiaoping Era," I examine the debate of what form the PRC's rise will take in the future. In grappling with this issue, I look at how this rising power is defining its national security threats. Consequently, I approached this dissertation with the goal of examining of how the PRC leadership is defining---and even not defining---its national security threats. While traditional, realist/materialist approaches to China's definition of threats to national security have merit, so too do non-traditional, constructivist approaches. As such, I seek to examine the influence that national security ideas and theories have had in influencing contemporary PRC national security policies. Given the value and potential impact of such a theory on a state's national security policies, I chose to examine whether the PRC scholarly community is cognizant of the content of these theories, how widespread and influential they are among academicians and policy analysts, and whether there is an observable influence of these theories on PRC national security policies. The findings reveal that although the PRC's scholars are cognizant of the issues in COPRI's Comprehensive Security, the PRC leaders' national security policies are still predominantly attributed to traditional security theory, definitions, and dynamics. The findings also reveal that while the PRC is exhibiting constructivist tendencies by securitizing non-traditional security issues, the rationales behind these securitizations are borne of realist purposes.
520 $a Overall, this project contributes to debates on the nature of the introduction of new theories of foreign policy into a country's academic and policy-making communities, as well how the PRC has been developing and implementing its policies of national security since the early 1990s. It demonstrates through observation, assessment, and analysis that Realism and Realist assumptions still dominate the PRC security-policy-making process. Yet it also demonstrates that non-Realist assumptions and policies are growing and that the PRC is securitizing certain non-traditional security issues, which supports the intellectual value of COPRI's comprehensive security, and other non-Realist images. This project also points to further research that can be done on the issue of whether the PRC is undergoing a peaceful revolution in its democratization process, whether reforming its currency is a securitized issue, and how and under what circumstances issues are de-securitized.
