Chinese Politics - National and Global Dimensions

China has undergone a rapid rise to global power status. All too often, however, China's role in global politics is still analysed according to outdated categories and stereotypical classifications. This textbook introduces the reader to the foundations of Chinese state philosophy and political history, as well as to the one-party state's basic institutional patterns and its recent transformations. It conducts a theory-based analysis of selected policy areas, while also discussing theories and concepts developed by leading Chinese political scientists. Beyond the Chinese one-party state, the textbook also reflects on the basic patterns of China's two special administrative regions Hong Kong and Macao, and discusses the special case of Taiwan.Testimonial"Much more than an ordinary textbook, Noesselt presents a comprehensive and dynamic analysis of Chinese political thinking, organization, and course of development. This is an original work of great insight, well grounded in China's own discourse about politics. It well rewards a close reading."Brantly Womack (Professor of Foreign Affairs, University of Virginia)"Noesselt shows how understanding China's international behaviour and global aspirations requires both area-studies type in-depth knowledge of Chinese domestic politics and also international relations disciplinary expertise. Fortunately for the reader, she has both in abundance."Shaun Breslin (Professor of Politics and International Studies, University of Warwick)
