Opis produktu
The book examines how Chinese foreign policy is adapting to protect growing numbers of nationals overseas and argues that this adaptation will increasingly be a defining feature of Chinas move to great power status and its approach to regional crises and international security.China has long adhered to a principle of śnoninterference in other states affairs. However as more of its companies have been investing in projects overseas and millions of its nationals are travelling abroad Beijing is finding itself progressively involved in other countries through the need to protect these interests and citizens. During the turmoil of the Arab Spring in 2011 China was compelled to evacuate more than 35000 Chinese workers and expatriates from Libya and later it led the hunt for the killers of 13 Chinese sailors in the Golden Triangle region of the Mekong River. In 2015 Beijing sent a combat battalion to join the UN peacekeeping mission in South Sudan where it has huge oil ventures. Its plans to construct a New Silk Road will mean new commercial endeavours to protect in Pakistan.The shift in Chinese foreign policy towards a more interventionist approach in protecting nationals abroad has not been the result of grand strategy but an adjustment to unfolding events. The large risk appetite of stateowned Chinese business is inexorably drawing the Chinese state into security hotspots and as China becomes a great power its people are openly calling on their government to protect compatriots caught in crises overseas including via military means. While much attention has focused on Beijings increasingly assertive behaviour in disputed Asian seas this book highlights another equally important area of change with potentially farreaching consequences for international security.Introduction 1.
