Abstract
It is common sense now to say that the world is in the midst of a grand shift of power from the West to the East. Due to its rapid economic growth, large territory and population, modernizing military, and glorious civilization, many commentators have concluded that China will not only be the next superpower, but is destined to dominate the twenty-first century. People in China and around the world thus are asking about Beijing’s plans for the future: How will it reshape international norms and institutions as China shifts from being a rule-taker to a rule-maker?
