Description: "China's commitments in Central Asia illustrate how regional foreign policy works and how - due to the potentially unstable situation in post-2014 Afghanistan - longstanding principles of Chinese foreign policy might be revised in the near future. Nadine Godehardt gives crucial insights into the Chinese expert discourse on Central Asia - analyzing how Chinese experts define Central Asia when they talk and write about policy issues related to China's immediate Western neighbourhood. In this context, she offers an inside perspective on Chinese voices whose meanings are rarely examined in Chinese International Relations studies"--Unedited summary from book cover.
