"Can QUAD preserve the essence of GLOBALISATION when CHINA aggressively pursuing the policy of ONE china"
United States, Australia, India, and Japan established a joint regional infrastructure plan “QUAD” to counter China’s multibillion-dollar Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). This plan is not a “rival” but an “alternative” to the BRI, it reflects these countries’ dilemma in how to deal with what they perceive as “the China threat.”
What is QUAD?
QUAD is an informal strategic grouping among above 4 countries for peaceful coexistence and “free, open and prosperous” INDO-PACIFIC. First time mooted by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in 2007. November 2017, India, the US, Australia and Japan gave shape to the long-pending "Quad" Coalition to develop a new strategy to keep the critical sea routes in the Indo-Pacific free of any influence especially CHINA.
Capitalisation Vs. Globalisation – QUAD role
This offers a middle path between the extremes of technological sovereignty and laissez-faire globalisation.
This configuration of values, interests and complementary capabilities offers unrivalled opportunities.
For the SUCCESS of the quad group there has been the need:
There are fundamental differences between authoritarian and liberal-democratic approaches to the information age. But there is no consensus among the latter. The Quad cannot allow differences of approach on privacy, data governance and the digital economy to widen. This agenda cannot be about substituting China. Rather, the approach would allow Quad countries to manage their dependencies on China while simultaneously developing a new vision for the global economy.
