Contemporary Issues in Chinese Politics
As China's global influence increases, how is China's economic and military growth, as well as its enhanced political influence, likely to affect China's relations with countries around the world? (You might write specifically in relation to USA, European Union and Africa). To what extent do you think that China's need for resources will drive those relationships? Will China's rise necessarily lead to conflict (Realism) or can the world and China learn to cooperate (Constructivism)?
