International Relations of China

To say that the rise of China has captured the popular attention is something of an understatement. Hardly a day goes by without the publication of a new study that confidently predicts China?s future ? be that a focus on internal challenges and potential collapse, or China?s rise to inevitable global dominance. The aim of this eight-volume collection is to provide, in a single resource, an overarching view of the totality of China?s place in the world.  In this new major work, the international team of editors have created a carefully balanced collection of seminal publications from leading scholars from both inside and outside of China, introduced by a newly-written chapter contextualizing the diverse perspectives on China?s changing global role they represent. Volume One: Theoretical Perspectives Volume Two: Making Foreign Policy Volume Three: China and ?Traditional? Partners ? the Developed World and (South)East Asia Volume Four: China and the Developing World Volume Five: National Security and Territorial Issues Volume Six: China and the Global Economy Volume Seven: Global Governance Volume Eight: China Challenges and Global Issues
