This paper looks at China’s future foreign policy agenda. It states that foreign policy will not be a top priority of China’s new leadership since Beijing is preoccupied with ensuring continued economic growth and social stability at home. The author warns that a Chinese foreign policy which is mainly reactive in nature might have serious consequences, especially with regard to China’s territorial disputes in the region. Regional stability could be at risk if China’s new leadership merely reacts as events unfold.
