"Abstract
China’s rapid economic development in recent decades has significantly boosted its international political activities as evidenced by the promotion of a set of relevant global foreign policy doctrines. Unlike the concepts adopted under Mao Zedong and
Deng Xiaoping, which were rather bombastic and ideological, China’s foreign policy conceptions adopted since the early 2000s were based on a scientific approach. This article explores the evolution of China’s key global foreign policy concepts,
enshrined in fundamental state and party documents, through the lens of Michel Foucault’s methodology. Employing the “archaeology of knowledge,” we show that the key concepts reflect China’s transformation into one of the leaders in the system of
international relations, and the genealogy of discourse helps reveal the “reflective” nature of Chinese foreign policy discourse in contrast to the “egoistic” American one. Having studied and rethought the experience of the United States and
Europe, China places emphasis on universal development and prosperity, designating them as its international policy goal."
