Preliminary scope of work

Tento dokument zkoumá dopady pokračujícího strategického soupeření mezi Čínou a Spojenými státy o vliv na Indo-tichomořský region s cílem prokázat negativní dopady na strukturální násilí v regionu. Na základě sloučení různých autorů tento článek stanoví definici a soubor kritérií pro přítomnost strukturálního násilí, které se pak aplikují na případy Vietnamu, Myanmaru a Japonska. Tím, že koreluje mechanismy, s nimiž Čína a Spojené státy ovlivňují s konkrétními důsledky na prevalenci a závažnost strukturálního násilí, tento dokument ukazuje, že pokračující geopolitická rivalita představuje značnou hrozbu pro všechny indo-tichomořské země bez ohledu na jejich vývojový status nebo sociální , politické, ekonomické a geografické charakteristiky. Výsledky naznačují, že rozsah strukturálního násilí v každé zemi byl přímo nebo nepřímo ovlivněn přítomností zahraniční účasti a že různé úrovně sladění nebo nezávislosti mohou sloužit ke zmírnění nebo zhoršení těchto účinků. Kromě toho důkazy naznačují, že čínské metody představují bezprostřednější hrozbu pro induviální země, ale že USA nejsou v žádném případě nezranitelné. Bylo proto rozhodnuto, že pokračující rozvoj indo-tichomořských zemí čelí kritickým obavám, protože sebezáující povaha Číny a rivalita Spojených států nevykazují žádné známky ustupování.

Preliminary scope of work in English

This paper examines the effects of the ongoing strategic rivalry between China and the United States for influence over the Indo-Pacific in order to demonstrate the negative impacts upon structural violence within the region. Using an amalgamation from various authors, this paper establishes a definition and set of criteria for the presence of structural violence which are then applied to the cases of Vietnam, Myanmar, and Japan. By correlating the mechanisms with which China and the United States garner influence with the specific consequences for the prevalence and severity of structural violence, this paper illustrates that the ongoing geopolitical rivalry poses considerable threats to all Indo-Pacific nations regardless of their development status or social, political, economic, and geographic characteristics. Results indicate that the extent of each country’s structural violence was directly or indirectly affected by the presence of foreign involvement, and that different levels of alignment or independence can serve to reduce or exacerbate these effects. Furthermore, evidence indicated that China’s methods pose a more immediate threat to induvial countries, but that the United States is by no means inculpable. It has been determined, therefore, that the continued development of Indo-Pacific countries faces critical concerns as the self-interested nature of China and the United States’ rivalry shows no signs of subsiding.
