| Descripción: | The term “Third World†refers to all developing nations in Asia, Africa and Latin America. During the Mao and the Deng eras, China mainly responded to pressures from the United States and the Soviet Union and was not able to deal with Third World nations per se. Since the launching of the War on Terror in 2001, however, American military expansion into Iraq and Afghanistan has completely changed China’s diplomatic priorities. Beijing has begun to pursue an active policy of engaging many Third World countries in order to challenge the US-dominated international order. This development reflects the current Chinese government’s rhetoric about the peaceful rise of China, which portrays a powerful China as non-threatening to its neighbors, in contrast to the actions of Western imperialist nations in the past. |
