| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Since the disintegration of the bipolar world, China's role in global and regional affairs has increased dramatically, prompting Chinese expert circles to undertake theoretical studies on important issues such as state economic interests, national security, and geostrategy for global and regional trade. Beijing has developed a long-term foreign policy, the essence of which is the following formula: "Appease the West, lean on the North, fight for the East and the South." It is believed that China as a state in the eastern part of Eurasia simply must develop strategic partnerships with the leading powers of the Eurasian continent, such as Germany, Russia, and India, because only through the process of "independent" and "joint" transformation with them can China finally become the main driving force of the changing world system. Its powerful economic potential allows Beijing to have a noticeable impact on the geopolitical situation in Eurasia and pursue an independent foreign economic policy. |
