About The Book
This book traces China’s rise as a dominant regional power with global influence, beginning from 1949 when the Chinese Communist Party came to power under Mao Zedong. It explores China’s search for a new identity after the ‘century of humiliation,’ covering its shifting alliances from the Soviet Union to the United States, and its engagement with the global economy and international community since the 1980s. The study provides an overview of key historical events such as the Korean War, Sino-Soviet split, Sino-American rapprochement, the Cold War’s end, and globalization. It assesses the roles of security, ideology, and domestic politics in Chinese foreign policy, offering a synthesis of archival research on China’s diplomatic and Cold War history. This book is an essential resource for students of Chinese history and contemporary international relations.
