          Abstract

          RESUMEN En las últimas décadas China aumentó enormemente su poder, tanto en términos económicos como militares. Sin embargo, la respuesta de los actores de la región no fue homogénea; mientras que algunos recurrieron al balance de poder y el aumento de sus capacidades, otros evitaron este tipo de comportamiento. Entre 2013 y 2018, Vietnam elevó su gasto militar de forma continua, mientras que Malasia llegó incluso a disminuir el suyo, planteando un interrogante importante para el realismo estructural. A través de un estudio comparado entre ambos casos se concluye que el realismo neoclásico, que incorpora las creencias y las percepciones de los respectivos gobiernos y sociedades al análisis, ofrece una mejor explicación de los acontecimientos. En estos casos, las variables domésticas de cada Estado moldearon el accionar de sus gobernantes y jugaron un rol central en la percepción de China como una amenaza y la consecuente estrategia de respuesta ante su ascenso.

          ABSTRACT In recent decades, China increased its power greatly, both in economic and military terms. However, the response from the actors in the region was not homogeneous; while some of them appeal to balance of power and increase their capabilities, others avoid this behavior. Between 2013 and 2018, Vietnam continuously increased its military expenditure, while Malaysia even decreased its own, representing an important question for Structural Realism. Through a comparative study between the two cases, it is concluded that Neoclassical Realism offers a better explanation of the events, incorporating government and societies’ beliefs and perceptions into the analysis. In these cases, each State domestic variables shaped the actions of their governing authorities and played a central role in the perception of China as a threat and the consistent response strategy to its rise.
