New books offer essential and unique viewpoint on China International Relations

July 26, 2012 - PRLog -- United Kingdom, July 2012 –  Four new books have just been added to the China International Relations series published by Paths International and distributed exclusively by Emerald Group Publishing. Unlike any other existing International Relations studies, this collection is written from the unique perspective of Chinese experts. It is therefore of major significance in understanding relationships between China and other major nations. The books are available at: http://www.pathsinternational.com/results.asp?sf1=series_exact&st1=INTERNATIONALRELATIONS

Drawing on the expertise of Chinese scholars from some of China’s most prestigious institutions, each of the nine publications in the International Relations collection takes an in-depth look at the evolving relationship between China and the economies of Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, America, Russia, Central Asia and Eastern Europe and Latin America.

Covering historical links and partnerships, and revealing China’s current thinking and strategies towards relations and trade policies, these books are the missing piece essential to an accurate understanding of the global economic context.

Paul Goulding, Managing Director of Paths International, adds: “These titles have broad appeal and really showcase the value of Paths books. Many of the authors are China’s leading experts in their field offering the latest research from primary source materials and local research within the country”.

Following the recent partnership between the two publishers, Paths books are distributed exclusively by Emerald, bringing knowledge from China to international communities. Paths will publish 74 new titles this year, 57 of which are in the English language, in the fields of social sciences, business and economics, international relations, architecture, and economic history.
