"Over the weekend of 8-10 June we enjoyed the generous hospitality of the Southern Center for International Studies in Atlanta where we met to examine China’s external relations. At an early stage in the conference there was agreement that engaging with, and assisting, China’s entry into the world order would prove one of the most important challenges of the 21st Century. We also agreed that China’s foreign policies could not be properly understood without close reference to its domestic reforms." (Quoted from article)
