China’s diplomacy features both global common characteristics and Chinese national and cultural characteristics like benevolence and good-neighborliness and harmony as the core. China’s foreign experience is both the treasure of China’s diplomacy and the basis for its future development and the great contribution to international diplomacy theories. The book aims at giving a concise and comprehensive introduction to China’s diplomacy development and change, and elaborates the status and changes of the relationship between China and other major countries in the world and relevant reasons, and China’s standpoints and policies on major international issues.
