Description

An examination of China's relations with the outside world in the post-Cold War era. Topics include: the theoretical foundation on which China formulates its foreign policy, China's security perceptions; its current relations with major powers; its arms build-up and the regional response. Through identifying China's common interests with the international community and its problems with Western powers, efforts are made to evaluate China's place in the world. The course is issue-oriented, although theoretical analysis will not be ignored.
