Abstract

China has been showing an unprecedented activism in global security, taking on a more direct role in global security. Since its rise to global power status, the country has attempted to reconcile its image of “responsible great power” with its narrative of “peaceful rise”, developing a “cautious” approach that avoids meddling in foreign conflicts and disputes that could force Beijing to assume a clear position in favour or against one of the conflicting parties. Such a stance has been evident, for instance, in China’s voting behaviour in the UN Security Council over the years with frequent abstentions in potentially controversial votes, particularly those involving the Global South.
