A common consensus in the world today is that China’s development is linked to the change in the international structure and will have a profound and far-reaching influence on the world order. In many people’s eyes, China has already become a superpower, second only to the U.S., and is having growing impact on the world.
In this context, a white paper titled “China and the World in the New Era,” published by the State Council Information Office on September 27, ahead of the grand celebrations marking the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) on October 1, makes clear what role the country wants to play in the world and what it expects from the rest of the world.
Xu Lin, deputy head of the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and minister of the State Council Information Office, said the white paper systematically introduces China’s development achievement, path and direction and details the relations between China and the rest of the world to help the international community better understand China’s development.
