Preface
President Xi Jinping said, The world today is more connected than ever before. And China is open wider to the world than ever before. The relationship between China and the world is undergoing historic changes. China needs to learn more about the world, and the world needs to learn more about China.

China is increasingly approaching the center of the international arena. In a world that is characterized by transformation and uncertainty, one in which the pattern of global powers is rapidly changing, increasing attention is directed to China. People are interested in the path the country has travelled and the direction it is heading to, and more importantly, they want to know what China can do for the world. All these may boil down to a seemingly simple question: How to understand China? This is a question that is too broad to be answered in just a few words.

The history of a large nation is bound to have twists and turns. Some people in other countries are biased against China, largely because of misunderstandings. The purpose of this series is to clarify these misunderstandings.

China in Focus is our response to questions asked by those who are interested in the country. These books offer a glimpse into the history and way of governance of the Communist Party of China, the great success of reform and opening up, the country's anti-corruption efforts, its role in global governance, the Belt and Road Initiative, the targeted poverty alleviation strategy, environmental protection policies and other aspects of the development pathway of the country. Among China-related topics, these are what people in other countries care about most. The information provided by these books can help readers better understand China.
