A Brief Analysis Of China's "Strategic Dialogue"

China's "Strategic Dialogue" began in 2005. This year, China intensively started strategic dialogues with other major powers of the world, such as India, Japan, Russia, and the United States. This is obviously not a coincidence, but a carefully planned diplomatic strategy. Strategic Dialogue is a new model for China to actively interact with the major powers, and a viable path to realize peaceful development and a harmonious world. These dialogues will have a far-reaching influence on China's and the world's prosperity and stability. Among the dialogues, the most striking one is the China-U.S. Strategic Dialogue, for it is not only of practical significance in balancing Sino-U.S.'s multi-level (bilateral, regional and global) common interests and differences, but also of historic and theoretical significance for the issue of how can a rising power and a conservative hegemony co-exist and develop peacefully in a multi-polarization and globalization era.The present paper consists of three parts:the first part is a summary of the background and the characteristics of Strategic Dialogue; the second part is a case study of the Sino-U.S. Strategic Dialogue, presenting its background and process, and making a brief comparison between Sino-U.S. Strategic Dialogue and China's strategic dialogues with Russia, Japan, and Indian; the third part reveals the historical, theoretical and practical significance of the Sino-U.S. Strategic Dialogue regime. It is noted that, in spite of some problems, this regime is of bright prospects. The paper concludes with an analysis of the implications of Sino-U.S. Strategic Dialogue regime on promoting China's overall "Strategic Dialogue"-this is just the research question which the article attempts to answer.
