Understanding China's world role has become one of the crucial
intellectual challenges of the 21st Century. This book explores
this topic through the adoption of three conceptual approaches that
help to uncover some of the key complex and simultaneous
interactions between the global and domestic forces that determine
China's external behavior. A central assumption of this study is
that it is unhelpful to treat the global and domestic levels as
separate categories of analysis and that the study of China can be
enriched by a recognition of the interpenetrated nature of the
domestic and international spheres. The first section of the book
concentrates on the role of ideas. It examines Chinese conceptions,
at both the elite and mass levels, of the country's status and role
in global politics, and how these conceptions can influence and
frame policies. The second section provides evidence of Chinese
societal involvement in transnational processes that are
simultaneously transforming China as well as other parts of the
world, often in unintended ways. The third section assesses the
impact of globalization on China in issue areas that are central to
global order, and outlines the domestic responses-from resistance
to embrace-that it generates. This study adopts a multidisciplinary
approach involving scholars in International Relations, History,
Social Anthropology, and Area Studies. It offers a sophisticated
understanding of Chinese thought and behavior and illustrates the
impact that China's re-emergence is having on 21st Century global
order.
