Content:
This book deals with China’s global aspirations, which rise from its economic power, history, tradition, ideology, and culture. Confucianism guided the emperors in their mandate of heaven over two thousand years. Today government-driven Confucianism as a country’s soft power is embedded to advance China’s aspirations for global power. The methodology in this book is historical and cultural narrative to gain a more profound understanding of China—how China thinks and acts. Anja Lahtinen, is Associate Professor at the University of Helsinki, Finland. Her research interest in China covers political and economic issues intertwined with history and culture. Her holistic and multidisciplinary approach arises from her education and work experience as the former Director of the Confucius Institute.
