Min Ye<\/a>, Associate Professor of International Relations at Boston University\u2019s Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies, was interviewed for a\u00a0Newsweek\u00a0<\/em>article in which she discusses evolving China’s foreign policy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The article, titled “Xi Looks to Defy Western Backlash, Boost China’s Diplomatic Edge Over U.S.<\/a>,” explores China’s growing global influence and impact, critiques of China’s intense global outreach efforts, as well as what the future may hold if the country’s President Xi Jinping assumes a third term in power. Ye points out that China’s foreign policy has always been rooted in the domestic political climate, which holds strong the belief that the country’s conflicts with other Great Powers are “the result of America’s anti-China coalition and mobilization.” This mentality will likely continue if Xi remains in power, and while the U.S. and Western alliances against China have been critical of China’s international encroachment, Ye argues there are others who welcome it and China will continue to promote its role in the international community.<\/span><\/p>\n The full article can be read on\u00a0Newsweek<\/em>‘s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Min Ye<\/a>\u00a0is the author of\u00a0Diasporas and Foreign Direct Investment in China and India<\/em>\u00a0(Cambridge University Press, 2014), and\u00a0The Making of Northeast Asia<\/em>\u00a0(with Kent Calder, Stanford University Press, 2010).\u00a0Her most recent book, titled\u00a0The Belt Road and Beyond: State-Mobilized Globalization in China: 1998\u20132018<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>(Cambridge University Press 2020), explores the motivations and strategies behind China\u2019s global economic expansion and considers the implications of the country\u2019s status as a global power on both China and the world.
