AMP China Lecture: Professor Cheng Li Mar 31, 2015

Show notes

China's role in international affairs is growing rapidly, but how much do we really understand about who is making decisions in China, and why?
In the Lowy Institute's annual China lecture, Professor Cheng Li, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution, examined how the current Chinese leadership under Xi Jinping sees the connection between the international and China's domestic situation, and analysed what implications these views have for Chinese foreign policy.
Professor Li discussed how the Xi leadership sees China's relationship with existing norms and institutions, and the rationale behind creating new institutions such as the AIIB and the 'One Belt One Road'. He also looked at what Chinese leaders want to achieve when they head up the G20 in 2016.
The Lowy Institute is grateful to AMP for their kind support of this event series.
