PKU2 - The Rise of China and Change in the World Politics

This seminar course is intended for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students to examine major issues and topics concerning the rise of China from a broad theoretical perspective, and to engage in the academic discourse and policy debate about implications of China’s rise for world politics.

The seminar is organized around the central question – will China’s rise bring about a fundamental change to the international system?

The course is roughly divided into three sections:

  1. China’s rise and the paradigm change in world politics;
  2. China’s quest for identity and order; and
  3. challenges and implications of China rising for Asia and the world.

Under each of these sections, a few specific topics are identified for class discussion.

  • Master students
  • PhD students (PhD students need to consult with instructor about the appropriateness of this course for their research interests)

Prerequisites

Delivery Method
