  • Since Xi Jinping took power in 2012, China's foreign policyhas significantly shifted from a defensive to an assertiveapproach. For decades, Beijing worked to integrate into theliberal international order, presenting itself as a peacefullyrising power. By contrast, however, under Xi's leadership, thecountry is attempting to create a global system that is morefavourable to its own interests.The Report examines China's current foreign policyapproach, and the drivers behind the country's shift awayfrom tradition. What are the main features of China's foreignpolicy today? How are decisions being taken, and to whatextent do interest groups continue to have a say in decisionmakingafter the recent power centralisation? [Publisher's text]
