CHINA STUDIES

China Studies as a whole brings into perspective the rising power's mounting economic, military and diplomatic clout that certainly has the aptitude to either overturn or sustain the current contemporary world order. The Center broadly examines China's international strategic thinking and conduct, foreign and security policy, and the impact of domestic politics and economy on China's foreign relations. It further addresses China's emergence in the face of the world in flux, domestic politics, economy, society, culture, People's Liberation Army and Tibet Autonomous Region and most importantly her engagement with each of South Asian country.
