The contributors to New World Orderings demonstrate that China's
twenty-first-century rise occurs not only through economics and
state politics but equally through the mutual entanglements of
overlapping social, economic, and cultural worlds in Southeast
Asia, Africa, and Latin America. They show how the Chinese state
has sought to reconfigure the nation's position in the world and
the centrality of trade, labor, religion, migration, gender, race,
and literature to this reconfiguration. Among other topics, the
contributors examine China's post-Bandung cultural diplomacy with
African nations, how West African "pastor-entrepreneurs" in China
interpreted and preached the prosperity doctrine, the diversity of
Chinese-Argentine social relations in the soy supply chain, and the
ties between China and India within the complex history of
inter-Asian exchange and Chinese migration to Southeast Asia. By
examining China's long historical relationship with the Global
South, this volume presents a non-state-centric history of China
that foregrounds the importance of transnational communicative and
imaginative worldmaking processes and interactions. Contributors.
