The book explores the transformation of international security strategies following the Cold War, particularly focusing on China's evolving approach. It highlights the emergence of the "New Security Concept," which seeks to integrate traditional Chinese values of mutual trust and cooperation into national and regional security policies. The narrative emphasizes China's pursuit of a "peaceful rise," countering perceptions of imperialism while addressing contemporary challenges, such as territorial disputes in the South and East China Seas, amidst its growing economic power.
