China is an emerging superpower with growing economic and political
interests worldwide that need to be preserved and enhanced. As
China becomes economically powerful, it has also become more
ambitious and assertive. Its foreign policy strategy is aimed at
protecting the country from external threats as it pursues its
geopolitical interests, allowing China to continue with economic
reforms as well as the acquisition of comprehensive national power.
... China initially shied away from playing an active role in
international affairs commensurate with its economic weight. This
was primarily because the political leadership made a strategic
choice to concentrate on economic development at home without
attempting a more interventionist global role lest it distract from
the number one priority of economic development. But the last few
years have seen China shun this reticence like a traditional great
power and signal that it is no longer willing to watch
international events unfold from the sidelines, thereby promoting
its new status as a global player of significance. It is this
evolving global profile of China that is the focus of this book as
Harsh V. Pant examines the growing role of China in various parts
of the world - Asia-Pacific, South Asia, Africa, Middle East,
Indian Ocean and Europe - and the tough diplomatic choices that it
is having to make as it goes about asserting its interests.
