Description

Chinese political narrative

What is the political narrative of China? What arguments does this 
country develop? What stories does China say to convince Europe of its 
model and its power, considered as essential in her opinion? In all 
cultures, the stories developed by literature, cinema or through 
politics feed our imaginations, cultural productions and electoral 
processes. In the 21st century, States know that influence and 
communication require the setting up of a narrative, embodied by 
arguments on themes or geographical spaces.

Soft power, the attractiveness of a culture and values, the Belt and 
Road initiative in the Balkans and public diplomacy in Brussels are 
examples of this narrative directed towards Europe.

By exploring international indexes, reflections of the realities of 
countries, European or Chinese newspapers or public diplomacy, this book 
shows the lines of the speech of the Chinese government and the model 
that accompanies it. He compares with that of Europe for a journey 
between the words of China and those of Europe.

Finally, this book places itself at a shift of perceptions, political 
positions and communication between the Chinese government and Europe, 
and more broadly with the rest of the world.
