Borders and intercultural visions have come to occupy an important place in Chinese studies as in many other fields of social science and historical studies. Whether seen as one country and state "among equals" or as a civilization at the centre of its own "world order," China was involved in many kinds of real interactions with the outside world and thereby also engaged in cognitive image making processes. This book attempts to combine the two perspectives of border and vision, to which a third one is added: foreign policy. The guiding question is: What was the role of borders (boundaries, frontiers, limits) in China's perception and management of other peoples?
