Competition in the Gray Zone Countering China's Coercion Against U.S. Allies and Partners in the Indo-Pacific
Abstract
Few studies have systematically tracked how China is using gray zone tactics - coercive activities beyond normal diplomacy and trade but below the use of kinetic military force - against multiple U.S. allies and partners. Lacking a foundational empirical baseline, it is difficult to determine patterns and trends in Chinese activities to develop effective counters to them.
