| Summary/Abstract |
The international security environment remains fragile and unpredictable even as China continues to benefit from the current international system. Changing international conditions will continue to shape China's foreign policy. Meanwhile, China's domestic politics has become more complicated with multiple players vying for influence. The Chinese government must maintain a balanced foreign policy without succumbing to growing domestic pressures that demand tougher Chinese actions in international affairs. These external and internal factors produce a dynamic, and sometimes contradictory, foreign policy in Beijing.
