Now in its second edition, China and the World since 1945 offers an accessible introduction to Chinaâs foreign policy and diplomatic history across a broad chronology. After the âcentury of humiliationâ, China was in constant search of a new identity on the world stage, which significantly changed the way the nation defined itself and its role in the world. The book traces developments in Chinaâs relations with the two superpowers, Asian neighbours, Third World countries, and European powers, examining Chinaâs role in modern globalization and the international community. It also considers the influence of domestic politics and ideology on Chinaâs international relations. Fully revised and updated with the latest scholarship, the second edition includes a new chapter on Chinaâs foreign relations under Xi Jinpingâs administration, including the reassertion of China as a Communist state, identification with the Global South, and the âNew Cold Warâ with the United States as both powers grapple for global influence. By examining the rise of China from a long-term historical perspective, this concise yet comprehensive study will be essential to scholars and students of Chinese history and contemporary international relations. |
