Re-globalisation cover

Since the end of the Cold War, globalisation has been the dominant political and economic trend. But what is China’s role in globalisation? What is China’s vision of the world? This title offers a fresh and stimulating account of how China's involvement in globalisation has changed over time, and how its role in leading the “re-globalisation” process is profoundly reshaping the world.

Introducing an innovative theoretical framework in the shape of “re-globalisation”, this book discusses China’s strategies and challenges while interacting with the international community. The book provides several illuminating case studies, such as the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), and the strategies of the Chinese technology firm Alibaba. Rich in data and bold in argument, the book provides an extraordinarily dynamic depiction of how China’s encounter with the outside world has not only transformed itself, but also reshaped the global order.

As the first systemic and book-length study of “re-globalisation”, this volume will appeal to researchers and students of politics and Chinese studies, and contemporary Chinese politics in particular.

"Professor Wang Dong has written a very timely and important book, offering an authoritative Chinese perspective on the profound changes occurring to the globalization process. Anyone interested in understanding the impact of Chinese initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank on globalization should read this book."

Amitav Acharya, President of the International Studies Association (2014-15); The UNESCO Chair in Transnational Challenges and Governance and Distinguished Professor at the School of International Service, American University, and author of The End of American World Order

"China’s re-emergence has transformed the world and will continue to do so. The West is struggling to understand this new world. But it should struggle no more. Wang Dong has provided brilliant insights into how China is reshaping the world. This volume is an indispensable guide to the post-Western era. An absolute must-read to understand our new world order."

Kishore Mahbubani, former Singapore Ambassador to the United Nations (UN); former President of the UN Security Council; Distinguished Fellow at the Asia Research Institute, National University of Singapore, and the author of Has China Won?
