How do aspiring and established rising global powers respond to conflict? Using China, the book studies its response to wars and rivalries in the Middle East from the Cold War to the present. Since the People’s Republic was established in 1949, China has long been involved in the Middle East and its conflicts, from exploiting or avoiding them to their management, containment or resolution. Using a conflict and peace studies angle, Burton adopts a broad perspective on Chinese engagement by looking at its involvement in the region’s conflicts including Israel/Palestine, Iraq before and after 2003, Sudan and the Darfur crisis, the Iranian nuclear deal, the Gulf crisis and the wars in Syria, Libya and Yemen. The book reveals how a rising global and non-Western power handles the challenges associated with both violent and nonviolent conflict and the differences between limiting and reducing violence alongside other ways to eliminate the causes of conflict and grievance.

This is a study of the disappointments experienced by Chinese workers working on a multi-million-dollar road project in Ethiopia. China's activity in Africa has received a lot of negative coverage from western media, yet such characterizations have little bearing on the experiences of ordinary Chinese workers on the construction site. Drieseen finds that the Chinese on the ground do not dictate the terms in their encounters with the Ethiopians; more often than not the uncooperative Ethiopians are in a position to undermine the work of the Chinese.
