Despite Beijing's repeated assurance that China's rise will be
"peaceful", the United States, Japan and the European Union as well
as many of China's Asian neighbours feel uneasy about the rise of
China. Although China's rise could be seen as inevitable, it
remains uncertain as to how a politically and economically powerful
China will behave, and how it will conduct its relations with the
outside world. One major problem with understanding China's
international relations is that western concepts of international
relations only partially explain China's approach. China's own
flourishing, indigeneous community of international relations
scholars have borrowed many concepts from the west, but their
application has not been entirely successful, so the work of
conceptualizing and theorizing China's approach to international
relations remains incomplete. Written by some of the foremost
scholars in the field of China studies, this book focuses on the
work of Wang Gungwu - one of the most influential scholars writing
on international relations - including topics such as empire,
nation-state, nationalism, state ideology, and the Chinese view of
world order. Besides honouring Wang Gungwu as a great scholar, the
book explores how China can be integrated more fully into
international relations studies and theories; discusses the extent
to which existing IR theory succeeds or fails to explain Chinese IR
behaviour, and demonstrates how the study of Chinese experiences
can enrich the IR field.
