China and the Developing World: Beijing`s Strategy for the Twenty-First Century by Joshua Eisenman, Eric Heginbotham & Derek Mitchell (Eds) - 2010

KW Publishers, 2010. Softcover. New. China`s relationship with the developing world is a fundamental part of the country`s larger foreign policy strategy. Sweeping changes both within and outside China`s borders and the transformation of geopolitics since the end of the cold war have spurred Beijing to reevaluate its strategies and objectives in the developing world. This is the first full-length treatment in nearly two decades of China`s relationship with the developing world. The introductory materials and first chapter of the book provide a general overview and framework of analysis for this important aspect of Chinese policy. The second part of the book presents systematic examinations of China`s relationships, with coverage of Africa, Central Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. The volume concludes with a look into the future of Chinese foreign policy.Contents Analytical Background 1.
