Harmonious World and China's New Foreign Policy cover

'Harmonious World' and China's New Foreign Policy consists of essays by China specialists on the Chinese government's characterization of foreign policy as a 'harmonious world.' The essays deal with such topics as 'harmonious world' and China's new diplomacy, China's multilateral diplomacy after the Cold War, China's changing image of and engagement with the world order, China's energy security diplomacy, and China's trade diplomacy. These insightful contributions will help students in this academic field understand the new concepts and programs adopted by the Chinese new leadership and their important implications for China's new foreign policy behavior in the years to come.

"Harmonious World" and China’s New Foreign Policy offers a comprehensive and well-researched examination of the important elements of contemporary Chinese foreign policy, including policy toward the great powers, its increasing presence in Africa, and the implications of its growing demand for imported energy resources. It is a valuable resource for both students and for specialists in Chinese foreign policy. -- Robert Ross, Boston College
This timely volume provides insightful, multidimensional analysis of the new development in Chinese foreign policy. It deepens our understanding of Chinese thinking and behavior by addressing multiple challenges in China's search for a 'harmonious world' in uncertain circumstances. This book is essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand China's rapidly growing role in a changing world. -- Guoli Liu, College of Charleston
The editors' well-written introduction and the subsequent five chapters by Jianwei Wang, Zhongqi Pan, Kai He, Jing Men, and Sheng Ding respectively, take stock of the deeper cultural and philosophical roots while discussing examples of contemporary foreign policy concerns, and therefore exude a more timeless quality, the sort that will prove valuable for other's seeking a good citation or two for their own works. * Journal of Chinese Political Science *
