Hugo Meijer is Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellow at the European
University Institute (EUI), Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced
Studies. He is also the Academic Director of The European
Initiative on Security Studies, a network of over sixty
universities that share the goal of consolidating security studies
in Europe. Previously, he was Lecturer in Defence Studies at King's
College London (2013-2016) and a Researcher at the Institute for
Strategic
Research (IRSEM, Paris, 2016-2017). He received his PhD in
International Relations from Sciences Po in 2013.
"A fascinating sub-story of US-China relations. Despite all of the
changes in the relationship, one constant over six-plus decades has
been Washington's effort to restrict military-related technology
transfers to China through its unilateral and multilateral export
control regimes. Hugo Meijer's Trading with the Enemy offers a
fine-grained historical accounting of this effort, which is of use
to scholars and policymakers alike."
-- David Shambaugh, George Washington University, and The Brookings
Institution
"Based on new and unique primary source information, Hugo Meijer's
Trading with the Enemy tells the important and heretofore untold
story of US policy toward China on the export of arms and
military-related technology from the Korean War to the present.
This excellent and eminently readable work significantly
contributes to our understanding of the shifting security and
economic dynamics at play between the United States and China at a
time when these dynamics
are critical to global stability and prosperity."
- Evan S. Medeiros, former U.S. National Security Council Senior
Director for Asian Affairs
"As geo-strategic and military competition grows between the United
States and China, the greatest rivalry will take place in the
strategic and dual-use high technology domain. Even as they contest
for influence and dominance in the South China Sea and cyberspace,
the overall race for global leadership will ultimately be decided
in terms of technological innovation, industrial capacity, and
economic sustainability. Hugo Meijer does a great service in
shedding
considerable light and providing analytical clarity in addressing
this hugely complex issue. This is essential reading for anyone
looking to understand the dynamics and long-term prospects for
US-China
strategic competition."
- Tai Ming Cheung, University of California San Diego
"During the Cold War, the United States made the sensible decision
to restrict the export of advanced military technologies to its
chief strategic rival, the Soviet Union. In contrast, U.S.
high-tech firms now need access to large and growing markets in
China in order to fund the research and development that keeps them
at the cutting edge. Meijer charts an admirably clear path through
the complexities of his subject to show how U.S. export control
policy
evolved over 30 years."
--Foreign Affairs
"...an 'ambitious and comprehensive study of US export control
policy toward the People's Republic of China Meijer's book is an
impressive piece of scholarship that is both accessible and highly
engaging Meijer does an outstanding job of leveraging the
information and insights gained from his many high-level interviews
in building his argument. His nuanced empirical analysis draws from
declassified documents, government reports and public statements by
various
US officials, and - most importantly - nearly 200 interviews. The
book will be of great interest to experts in the academic and
policy communities who focus on US-China relations."
--China Quarterly
"...Ultimately, Meijer's account of how growing economic
interdependence in trade and finance potentially undermines the
ability to utilize typical instruments of military and
technological containment in the 21st century offers dynamic
analysis of US foreign policy towards China. In highlighting the
consequences of increasingly multifaceted security objectives amid
the commercialization of military-related technology in global
markets, Meijer provides a rich
tapestry from which to understand the potential pitfalls for
America's national security and its primacy in technology and
innovation in a world accustomed to US dominance in these
realms...Summing Up:
Highly recommended. Graduate students and faculty." --N. Sackeyfio,
