The empirical study of soft power presents a challenge for social scientists. Conventional wisdom asserts that China's soft power is growing alongside its hard power, but few scholars have been able to demonstrate this phenomenon empirically. This project represents a first-cut effort at operationalizing and measuring the so-called Beijing Consensus.

Furthermore, no relationship could be found between favorable attitudes towards China and preference for democracy.
