China-West relations: dilemmas and lessons- Online training course

The rise of China in the Liberal International Order has caused uncertainty across Western civil society. China as a cultural and political entity creates anxiety in parts of the world where liberalism has dominated for decades/centuries. Citizens; policy-makers; and the military are catching up on their knowledge of China to deconstruct the complexity of a country that hosts a fifth of humanity and whose foreign interactions have been characterized by ambiguity. This course explores those areas of ambiguity where Chinese actions are causing security dilemmas and to learn lessons that can be applied in other areas of foreign/security policy.
