This research aims to study Chinese diplomacy in terms of networks. With the gradual rise of interest in Chinese diplomacy and the invigoration of network theory in various academic spheres, examining Chinese diplomacy in terms of networks is meaningful for both scholarship and policy. Perceiving among the various diplomatic networks the symbolism and importance of summits carried out by national leaders, this research articulates Chinese-led summits in terms of networks, which are then analyzed in order to examine the diplomacy of modern China. As a result, this study reaffirmed the existing research achievements through the network analysis, and was able to make the contents clearer which have been discussed in rather obscured way. At the same time, it was able to solidify the understanding of the Chinese diplomacy more by revealing graphs and maps with regard to the PRC’s diplomatic pattern via the analysis of the summit network. First, given the trend of annually held summits, we could examine the transitions and periodic characteristics of Chinese diplomacy. Also, by using graphs to visualize the summit network, we could not only verify at a glance at which period and with which state China had held active summit conferences during the past 60 years, but also discover the structural attributes of the summit network. Moreover, the ‘standardized actor degree centrality’, which measures the summit counterparts of China, enabled a more concrete assessment of the major partner for each period. On the other hand, by creating a map showing China’s major summit partners in each period, we could examine summit diplomacy in terms of its geographical development as well as the “One Belt, One Road” initiative highlighted by the Xi Jinping’s regime. As there are limits to explaining all the diplomacy by mere analysis of summits, more diverse aspects of Chinese diplomacy should be examined in the future by unveiling and analyzing other networks established by Chinese diplomacy.
Abstract
This research aims to study Chinese diplomacy in terms of networks. With the gradual rise of interest in Chinese diplomacy and the invigoration of network theory in various academic spheres, examining Chinese diplomacy in terms of networks is meaningful for both scholarship and policy. Perceiving among the various diplomatic networks the symbolism and importance of summits carried out by national leaders, this research articulates Chinese-led summits in terms of networks, which are then analyzed in order to examine the diplomacy of modern China. As a result, this study reaffirmed the existing research achievements through the network analysis, and was able to make the contents clearer which have been discussed in rather obscured way. At the same time, it was able to solidify the understanding of the Chinese diplomacy more by revealing graphs and maps with regard to the PRC’s diplomatic pattern via the analysis of the summit network. First, given the trend of annually held summits, we could examine the transitions and periodic characteristics of Chinese diplomacy. Also, by using graphs to visualize the summit network, we could not only verify at a glance at which period and with which state China had held active summit conferences during the past 60 years, but also discover the structural attributes of the summit network. Moreover, the ‘standardized actor degree centrality’, which measures the summit counterparts of China, enabled a more concrete assessment of the major partner for each period. On the other hand, by creating a map showing China’s major summit partners in each period, we could examine summit diplomacy in terms of its geographical development as well as the “One Belt, One Road” initiative highlighted by the Xi Jinping’s regime. As there are limits to explaining all the diplomacy by mere analysis of summits, more diverse aspects of Chinese diplomacy should be examined in the future by unveiling and analyzing other networks established by Chinese diplomacy.
