Beskrivning
This book examines China’s diplomacy under President Xi Jinping, through focused studies of its key neighboring countries. It provides in-depth analysis of Xi Jinping’s policies toward individual neighbors since late 2012, while also presenting a detailed historical account of China’s relations with each of them—from the imperial era to the eve of Xi’s leadership. It highlights how Xi’s approach to diplomacy reflects elements of both imperial expansionism and Mao Zedong’s “fighting spirit” and “red gene.” Written by established historians with decades of cross-cultural experience in China and the United States, it offers a balanced perspective on China’s neighborhood policy.Xi’s China and Its Neighbors is ideal for scholars, students, and researchers in international relations, Asian studies, and political history. It appeals to those researching China’s foreign policy, regional diplomacy, and historical influences on contemporary governance.
