There is a pressing need for a greater understanding among the world's diverse peoples. Once individuals gain an appreciation of each other's language and history, they can use this foundation to help construct a more peaceful, harmonious, cooperative and equitable world. But how can they begin to work toward this goal? In 2013 China proposed the Community of Shared Future (CSF), which has since become a framework for international collaboration aimed at creating a better world. Under the CSF framework , the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and the three major globalinitiatives have been proposed. The BRI and these initiatives have garnered support and praise from much of the world. Nearly all African countries that maintain diplomatic relations with China have signed BRI cooperative agreements. However, the United States and other Western countries are not willing to accept a rising China in the international community. Thus, the West needs to gain a better understanding of them. The BRI and the three major global initiatives are not empty slogans. It is crucial for China to develop a global governance system that takes concrete actions and benefits other countries.

Dialogue and cooperation constitute the cornerstone of contemporary Chinese foreign policy. The aim of this book is to interpret the Chinese approaches to global governance by examining Sino-U.S. relations and Sino-Africa relations in light of the BRI and the vision of Building a Global Community of Shared Future.
