title = {Threats of a Different Kind: China and Russia in U.S. Security Policy Discourse},
year = {2016},
note = {The article illustrates how U.S. security policy discourse constructs
China and Russia as threats of distinct qualities. Since articulations
of another state as threat can constitute boundaries towards that
state and thus conflict potential, the article aims to contribute to
our understanding of how perception, national identity, self-other and
spatial constructions inform international state behavior. The article
begins by outlining the concepts of perception, national identity, and
self-other and spatial constructions. It then presents analytical
results on constructions of China and Russia vis-à-vis the U.S.
self-image, and closes with implications for contemporary security
challenges.},
