"This is an ambitious book that speaks to important theoretical
debates and has an empirical contribution that moves beyond the
existing literature on pre-modern East Asian international
relations. It will be debated and discussed at length in the
field."

"Ambitious and innovative, this book proposes a 'relational
approach' to the study of the early Ming's foreign relations and
introduces into the debate the Confucian ethics of mutual affection
and obligation in inter-polity relations. This is a much-needed
move in a business dominated by Eurocentric ideas, perspectives and
theories...It might well galvanize historians of East Asia and lead
to renewed dialogue with IR scholars in the years to
come."––Yangwen Zheng, Journal of Chinese Overseas
"Chinese Hegemony is a fascinating, well-written, carefully
constructed and researched book. I am impressed by its intellectual
sweep and the diverse audiences to which it should appeal."
*King's College London*
