Abstract

This special issue on China in the Mediterranean offers a comparative, theoretical perspective, and an up-to-date empirical analysis of China’s increased presence on both shores of the Mediterranean, ranging from China’s infrastructure diplo-macy in North Africa to Sino-Southern Mediterranean and Sino-European relations.

期刊介绍： Mediterranean Politics is the only refereed academic journal to focus on the politics, international relations and political economy of the entire Mediterranean area - "Mediterranean" here being understood to refer to all those countries whose borders are defined partially or wholly by the Mediterranean Sea. This focus involves consideration not only of the region itself, but also the significance of developments there for other parts of the world. The journal analyses the central issues that concern Mediterranean countries and assesses both local and international responses to them. While its prime concern is with political developments, the focus of Mediterranean Politics extends to all the factors and dimensions affecting political life.
