Abstract
This chapter discusses some of the contemporary approaches to Chinese diplomatic behaviour. The first section deals with certain epistemological questions regarding foreign policy studies. Existing perspectives on Chinese foreign policy behaviour are dealt with in the second section. The last section suggests a research direction which emphasises the co-ordination among the existing theoretical perspectives. The model building in Chapter 3 responds to this designated direction.
