Rezensionen

"China's rise is the most important geopolitical issue today. Yet, it is difficult to find clear, comprehensive, analysis of how China has emerged with such force onto the world stage. This book, therefore, fills a much-needed gap as it covers China's materialization as a great power since 1949, and, crucially, covers Beijing's assertive foreign policy since the Xi Jinping era. Theoretically and historically grounded, it is the most complete, yet compact and readable, work on the subject. It will become the indispensable work on China's foreign policy."

M. L. R. Smith, Professor of Strategic Theory, King's College London, author of Year of the Bat: Globalization, China and the Coronavirus (London: Civitas, 2020, with Niall McCrae)

"This book represents a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to China's foreign policy. The most outstanding feature of this book is its historical approach that not only analyzes the changes and continuities in China's foreign policy, but also gives insight into the linkage between China's increasingly expansive foreign policy and the historical context of China's rise. This thoughtfully written book should be essential reading for scholars, students, and policymakers."

Dong Zhang, Assistant Professor, Division of Social Science, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology

"By placing China's rise in the context of its enduring security challenges since 1949, this comprehensive and accessible survey will guide students to a sound understanding of China's foreign policy and its meaning for its regional neighbors and for the rest of the world."

Andrew J. Nathan, Class of 1919 Professor of Political Science, Columbia University
