This book presents a comprehensive exploration of China's foreign policy evolution from the early twentieth century to the contemporary era. The intricate interplay between the People's Republic of China, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), and the global stage is meticulously traced, offering a nuanced understanding of China's dynamic engagement with the world. With a detailed analysis spanning eight chapters, the book delves into the contextual factors that influenced CCP's initial foreign policy ideas prior to the establishment of the People's Republic. It systematically unravels the gradual development of these ideas during the Cold War era and unveils the fundamental and adaptive trajectories that have shaped China's foreign policy landscape over the past three decades. Utilizing primary sources and academic texts, the book incorporates both Chinese and global perspectives to shed new light on the evolution of Chinese foreign policy thought, making it an invaluable contribution to the study of China's global interactions. The authors uniquely bridge the gap between different stages of China's foreign policy development across a centennial timeframe, offering an "organic" perspective on its growth, and their comprehensive analysis of China's foreign policy "toolset" adds a distinctive dimension to existing knowledge. By steering clear of preconceived notions, the book delivers a well-rounded analysis of China's foreign policy evolution.

The products intended for purchase are moved to the "shopping cart". You can select the "Shopping Cart" using the appropriate buttons on the navigation bar and make changes there at any time.
After calling up the "Checkout" page and entering the required personal data and payment and shipping conditions, all order information is then displayed again on the order summary page.
Before submitting the order, you have the ability once more to review or change any information here (you may also use the "back" button on the Internet browser), or to cancel the purchase.

§ 5 Choice of law, place of fulfilment, jurisdiction
(1) German law shall apply.
