China's vision for international order is a matter of great global interest. This book analyses China's vision for foreign policy and how it is seeking to achieve its goals with its immediate neighbours.
The book provides a historically informed account by examining the legacy of China's imperial past and traditional political philosophy for insights on the country's view of its place in today's world. It argues that China today sees the maintenance of order as its own responsibility and that it believes this order needs to attribute different positions and roles to 'small' and 'big' states to achieve stability. Furthermore, it explores the different tools which China employs to achieve its vision, including a proactive diplomacy, the control of international discourse, threat of punishment for 'misbehaviour' and the promise of economic benefits in return for compliance.
