PODCAST | The role of the Foreign Ministry in shaping Chinese policy

China Global Podcast – The German Marshall Fund of the United States | Most observers of China’s relations with the world maintain that China’s foreign policy started becoming more assertive beginning in the 2010s. The label “wolf warrior diplomacy” was coined by Western media to describe the aggressive language used by Chinese diplomats. The term “wolf warrior” comes from the title of the Chinese action film Wolf Warrior 2 and describes a more combative approach used by many Chinese diplomats, especially in social media and in interviews. Explanations for China’s increased diplomatic assertiveness vary, ranging from rising military and economic might to the personal leadership style of General Secretary Xi Jinping. In this episode, Host Bonnie Glaser is joined by the author of the book “China’s Rising Foreign Ministry” Dylan Loh Ming Hui, Assistant Professor of Public Policy and Global Affairs at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, to discuss Chinese foreign policy, Southeast Asian regionalism, and Asian conceptions of the international order.
