Overview

Wolf Warrior Diplomacy and China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs: From Policy to Podium traces the evolution of Chinese foreign policy from Mao Zedong to Xi Jinping, examining the domestic and international role that aggression plays in the diplomacy of the Chinese Communist Party. Yaoyao Dai and Lu Wei Rose Luqiu demonstrate that China’s diplomacy has constantly evolved with the changing domestic environment and global power balance and that, at the behest of Xi Jinping, “Wolf Warrior” diplomats in China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs have embraced a more confident and proactive role in foreign policy. Combining advanced computational methods with analysis of press conferences, public speeches, and government statements, this book offers a comprehensive evaluation of continuity and change in the diplomatic language of the Chinese Communist Party and media reactions to Chinese diplomacy in the Global South. This book will be of particular interest to scholars of communication, rhetoric, political science, and international relations.

Reviews

Written by two communication experts, Wolf Warrior Diplomacy and China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs: From Policy to Podium magnifically unpacks China's Wolf Warrior Diplomacy: its fighting spirit, forceful rhetoric, and aggressive spokespersons. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, this book demonstrates how much this new style of diplomacy is associated with the rise of Xi Jinping and serves to fulfill patriotic sentiments in Chinese society while projecting strength internationally. The words of Xi's wolf warrior diplomats pack a powerful and potentially destabilizing bite.
