Perspectives Asia | Daring to Struggle: China's Global Ambitions under Xi Jinping

Increasingly powerful, prosperous, and authoritarian, China under the leadership of Xi Jinping has become a more intense competitor across the globe—economically, technologically, diplomatically, militarily, and in seeking to influence people's hearts and minds. But what does China ultimately want in the world? Internationally renowned China scholar Bates Gill explains the fundamental motivations driving the country's more dynamic, assertive, and risk-taking approach to the world under Xi Jinping. In Daring to Struggle, Gill focuses on six increasingly important interests for today's China—legitimacy, sovereignty, wealth, power, leadership, and ideas—and details how the determined pursuit of them at home and abroad profoundly shapes its foreign relationships. The result is a more contested strategic environment in the Indo-Pacific and beyond.
