Dialogue with the Dragon
Understanding and contextualizing China
Marina Rudyak examines how China defines its role in the world and how concepts of order and power are translated into concrete global policy. The focus is on the phenomenon of “Global China”: the strategies, tools, and narratives through which the country is expanding its political and ideological influence.
In doing so, she analyzes China’s development cooperation and relations with the Global South, as well as the political language, strategic narratives, and international discourse systems of the Communist Party of China.
How does China view its role in the world, and how does this perspective shape global politics?
In Dialogue with the Dragon, Marina Rudyak explains how to understand China’s logic of relations and behavior, and what role Europe can play in the triangle between China and the United States. From this, she develops concrete approaches for confident European action.
Decoding China Dictionary: An Analysis of Key Terms in Chinese Foreign Policy
Together with international researchers, Marina Rudyak is examining how the Chinese government interprets and strategically employs key concepts in international relations, and how these interpretations differ from the normative understanding within the United Nations.
How is China shaping the global dynamics of politics, development, and cooperation?
The Routledge Handbook on Global China brings together international perspectives on China’s growing role in the world. The volume examines the economic, political, and ideological dimensions of Global China and develops new theoretical and methodological approaches to better understand China’s transnational relations, discursive power, and global development strategies.
