| Summary/Abstract |
IN THE first quarter of the 21st century, China's influence in the world has risen considerably, drawing the interest of researchers from various countries. Analysts curious about the driving forces of this success agree that "China's peaceful rise" has largely been due to the use of "soft power" tools. The 2022 Winter Olympics is a pertinent example: They offered the world an image of a successful China and a symbolic victory over the COVID-19 pandemic.
