| Summary/Abstract |
This article examines China's efforts to launch new international institutions in order to advance its interests globally. The Asian Infrastructure and Investment Bank (AIIB) presents an opportunity for China to create a China-led Multilateral Development Bank (MDB) to promote its vision of how to improve the existing world order. The operation of the AIIB has evolved in the last five years. Beijing's priority at the initial stage was to exercise precaution to ensure its success. More recently, Beijing has adopted a bolder approach to embed a new set of ideas, norms, principles and practices into the AIIB project selection and implementation with an emphasis on efficiency and flexibility, less formality and legality, and more equal participation of the borrowing developing countries.

| Summary/Abstract |
China's GATT/WTO accession process has been dynamic and complex, affected by the broad political and economic factors at both the international and the domestic levels, and by a complex intertwining of bilateral and multilateral negotiations. This paper attempts to review this 15-year-long negotiation by focusing on the correlation and interaction between three variables--international factors, bureaucratic politics, and societal factors--and the negotiation process. Among them, the author identifies the first two variables as the primary factors shaping negotiation positions, strategies and outcomes, while societal factors such as Congress, interest groups and the public media are also worth noting. They played a minor but growing role in China to affect the ebb and flow of the negotiation process. Furthermore, they functioned differently in the West and in China and these differences themselves also contributed to influencing the negotiation process.
