The untold story of China’s rise as a global superpower, chronicled through the diplomatic shock troops that connect Beijing to the world.

China’s Civilian Army charts China’s transformation from an isolated and impoverished communist state to a global superpower from the perspective of those on the front line: China’s diplomats. They give a rare perspective on the greatest geopolitical drama of the last half century.

In the early days of the People’s Republic, diplomats were highly-disciplined, committed communists who feared revealing any weakness to the threatening capitalist world. Remarkably, the model that revolutionary leader Zhou Enlai established continues to this day despite the massive changes the country has undergone in recent decades.
