CPC's storytelling in the New Era

📝 Our Topic:  In the Xi Jinping Era, China’s international profile has dramatically changed since the proclamation of the People’s Republic of China. The once primarily rural country has grown to become the second largest economy in the world and with this, has acquired a central role in the international arena. This status has required China to proactively depict its acquired greatness and its meaning to the rest of the world by constructing a new narrative.

In this webinar, Prof. Brown will analyse how China has attempted to tell its story to the international community throughout its rapid period of development to today. He will look at the challenges facing China-EU relations in a world that for the most part has little understanding of China’s history and the evolution of its international identity.
