Chinese foreign policy can be usefully examined from a world order perspective because its normative components play such a crucial role. An explicit set of world order values are employed to explore the differences in style and substance between Maoist foreign policy and that of the post-Mao regime. The Maoist conception of world order can be characterized by the interrelated values of struggle, populism, egalitarianism, and national sovereignty, independence, and equality. Many of these normative values of Mao's world view have been treated by the post-Maoist leadership as hindering the new goal of modernization. The “trilateralization” of Chinese foreign policy-the geopolitical and ecopolitical axis shifting more decisively to the North-is symbolic of the partial repudiation of Mao's “three worlds” theory. The discernible reorientation of Chinese foreign policy in the current period from Mao's value-centered world order to Deng's power-centered world order augers dramatic change both within and without the Chinese political system. |
