Summary
Assesses the long-term implications of China's recent reliance on soft power--trade incentives, diplomacy, cultural and educational exchange, and more--to develop stronger international alliances, position itself as a model of social and economic success, and project a benign national image.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
At the beginning of the twenty-first century, China is poised to become a major global power. And though much has been written of Chinaâs rise, a crucial aspect of this transformation has gone largely unnoticed: the way that China is using soft power to appeal to its neighbors and to distant countries alike.
This book is the first to examine the significance of Chinaâs recent reliance on soft powerÂdiplomacy, trade incentives, cultural and educational exchange opportunities, and other techniquesÂto project a benign national image, position itself as a model of social and economic success, and develop stronger international alliances. Drawing on years of experience tracking Chinaâs policies in Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Africa, Joshua Kurlantzick reveals how China has wooed the world with a "charm offensive" that has largely escaped the attention of American policy makers.
Beijingâs new diplomacy has altered the political landscape in Southeast Asia and far beyond, changing the dynamics of Chinaâs relationships with other countries. China also has worked to take advantage of American policy mistakes, Kurlantzick contends. In a provocative conclusion, he considers a future in which China may be the first nation since the Soviet Union to rival the United States in international influence.
