Research Interests
My research interests are in two predominant areas: l.) labor policy in the Communist and post-Communist states with a focus on China; 2) Russo-Chinese Relations with respect to their domestic and foreign policy implications. At present, I am writing an article dealing with Russian foreign policy toward China since 1991. My subsequent plans are to write on the foreign policy of Taiwan (the Republic of China) toward the post-Soviet successor states with an emphasis on Russia.
