Sommario/riassunto

Multidimensional Diplomacy of Contemporary China covers the interaction between China's multidimensional dealings with various



parts of the world in the 21st century. Covering from the ancient Taoism and a new growing 'harmonious international order' in the formation of contemporary Chinese foreign policy, scholars and students studying Chinese politics and society, Chinese diplomacy as well as international relations should find this book useful and insightful for their studies.
