Chinese Foreign Policy Think Tanks and China's Policy Toward Japan

This book examines Chinese foreign policy think tanks and their influence in China's foreign policy towards Japan between the late 1970s and late 1990s. Being one of the first attempts to examine the rise of Chinese think tanks through empirical case-studies, this book has demonstrated a growing pluralistic trend in post-Mao China's foreign policy-making process. It has also confirmed the variety of the role played by International Relations think tanks regarding different foreign policy issues.
