This conversational event will draw on key points from Dr. Repnikova’s latest book, Chinese Soft Power (Cambridge University Press, 2022), which unpacks China’s visions and practices of soft power both domestically, and internationally. Analysing a variety of soft-power mechanisms, the research traces both their official motivations and how they operate across global contexts.

The talk will continue by examining how soft power carries different meanings in China, and how its application should not be seen through a binary lens of success or failure. Instead, the speaker would argue that we should treat Chinese initiatives as ambitious in scale and adaptive to local contexts, but also as contested or perceived with mixed credibility by global audiences.
