China's Expanding Global Influence: Foreign Policy Goals, Practices, and Tools (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781477489550)

There is little doubt that China's regional and global influence is rising rapidly. Since the 1990s, China has not only become a much more powerful actor in East Asia, but it's also become an economic and diplomatic actor of importance in Africa and Latin America. It has also become an important player in international energy markets in the Persian Gulf, in Western Africa and in Central Asia. China has since the 1990s embraced multilateralism, playing a larger role in the existing organizations like the U.N. Security Council and in creating new regional groupings and organizations such as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and the ASEAN Plus Three grouping.
