Gauging China's Influence Abroad

'The volume tackles the elusive question of China's influence abroad. Leading regional experts uncover the myths and realities about China's influence in a wide array of states in the Indo-Pacific. This major work raises thought-provoking questions about theorizing on, and the policy implications of, China's global influence.'

'Among volumes of publications on China's growing regional and global influence, Professor Chan's brilliant book is distinguished by clarity of the analysis and the broad expertise of the contributors on the countries in the Indo-Pacific, revealing a mixed record in Beijing's influence efforts. The policy and academic communities will find this edited book an invaluable source of nuanced knowledge and key insights into a defining international relations issue of our times.'
