This book examines China's contemporary global cultural footprints
through its recent development of cultural diplomacy. The volume
presents an alternative analytical framework to examine China's
cultural diplomacy, which goes beyond the Western-defined concept
of 'soft power' that prevails in the current literature. This new
approach constructs a three-dimensional framework on Orientalism,
cultural hegemony and nationalism to decipher the multiple
contexts, which China inhabits historically, internationally and
domestically. The book presents multiple case studies of the
Confucius Institute, and compares the global programme located
around the world with its Western counterparts, and also with other
Chinese government-sponsored endeavours and
non-government-initiated programmes. The author aims to solve the
puzzle of why China's efforts in cultural diplomacy are perceived
differently around the world and helps to outline the distinctive
features of China's cultural diplomacy. This book will be of much
interest to students of diplomacy, Chinese politics, foreign policy
and International Relations in general.
