This book sets out to examine modern China's foreign policy in detail. What are its historical roots? What are its theoretical foundations? How has it been applied in practice, across radically different historical circumstances? Is China an imperialist power? Is its foreign policy "good enough"? And what does China's rise mean for the rest of humanity - for the Global South, for the prospects of peace, and for the long struggle to build a more just world order?

The ten essays collected here approach these questions from a range of angles, but they share a common premise: that China's emergence as a global power, far from being a threat to humanity, offers the best hope for a peaceful, multipolar and ultimately socialist future.

Understanding China's foreign policy is not an academic exercise but one of the most urgent tasks facing all those who are working towards a future of peace, development and justice.

This book aims to set out the broad contours, historical background and theoretical underpinnings that shape and guide China's practice on the global stage.

China's omnidirectional foreign policy, and how they help to advance concrete solutions to some of the existential issues facing a humanity that now stands at a crossroads between unipolarity and multipolarity, between socialism and barbarism, between sustainability and extinction.
