In China's Global Strategy under Xi Jinping, Steve Tsang and Olivia Cheung explain Xi's core strategy to make China great again by restoring the tianxia model of global leadership, in which China becomes the new pre-eminent power. To do so, they apply a Sino-centric party-state realism framework to three foreign policy realms: global diplomacy, technology and the economy, and geopolitics. Significantly, China does not intend to replace the US as the global hegemon, yet the potential source for a great power conflict is unmistakable. A powerful analysis of the drivers behind China's global ambitions under Xi, this book will be essential reading for anyone interested in how China is attempting to reshape international politics.
