European Perceptions of China and Perspectives on the Belt and Road Initiative analyses current European approaches to China through studies of media, student cohorts, political and social elites, and cultural attitudes. As the BRI advances, these approaches become increasingly relevant.
European Perceptions of China and Perspectives on the Belt and Road Initiative is a collection of fourteen essays on the way China is perceived in Europe today. These perceptions – and they are multiple – are particularly important to the People’s Republic of China as the country grapples with its increasingly prominent role on the international stage, and equally important to Europe as it attempts to come to terms with the technological, social and economic advances of the Belt and Road Initiative.



The authors are, on the whole, senior academics specializing in such topics as International Relations and Security, Public Diplomacy, Media and Cultural Studies, and Philosophy and Religion from more than a dozen different European countries and are involved in various international projects focussed on Europe-China relations.

Stephen Rowley, Ph.D. (1979), Manchester University, Habilitation (2007) Paris University, is currently Professor of English and Director of the Centre for European Studies at Sun Yat-sen University, P.R.C. where he was appointed under the ‘One Hundred Talents’ Programme. He was formerly Vice-President (International) at Artois University, France.
