China's Political Worldview and Chinese Exceptionalism: International Order and Global Leadership' uses the notion of Chinese exceptionalism as a framework to analyze China's international politics and foreign policy. This book argues that China's approach to international relations is best understood in the context of these claims to exceptionalism and China's broader political world view. In doing so, it fosters a more comprehensive understanding of China's actions within the realms of foreign policy and international politics, and in the context of the preferred world order, norms and rules that the country seeks to promote. - Focuses on the study of China's political worldview, an area that is under-studied by Western scholars of Chinese politics. - Emphasizes on China's diplomatic activities in Asia, which is an area of great interest to policy-makers - Study on Chinese exceptionalism which is also an under-researched, albeit growing theme in recent years.

China's Political Worldview and Chinese Exceptionalism is a comprehensive analysis of the components and drivers of the narrative of Chinese exceptionalism, additionally exploring how this narrative is perceived in Asia. Overall, this book is a worthy contribution to debates on the implications of China's rise for international order.,- Zerrin Torun, Europe-Asia Studies, Vol. 74, Iss. 10, China's Political Worldview and Chinese Exceptionalism succeeds in directing our attention to the role that exceptionalism plays in China's global affairs and will appeal to a wide range of readers. China scholars will appreciate this authoritative study on Chinese exceptionalism in the age of Xi Jinping, a phenomenon which will likely be ever more present in the years ahead. IR theorists, particularly constructivists, will welcome the nuanced way that ideas and worldviews are included as explanatory variables in China's diplomacy.,- Stephen Smith, The China Quarterly, Vol. 250
