China in the Mirror of the Sea / Cyrille P. Coutansais

The ocean is the source of great power: from the Spain of Charles V to the United State and passing to the British empire, the principle always proved itself. China is no exception to the rule.

These goals lead to a new relation to the world and breaks with a diplomatic past which tied Latin America to the Occident.
