FOREWORD

In February 2018 twenty-three American and ten foreign academics, diplomats, journalists, and think tank members met at the Annenberg Foundation Trusts Sunnylands estate in Southern California to launch a project to map the challenges posed by the Peoples Republic of Chinas growing questin what Beijing propagandists call a discourse war, huayuzhan ()to influence civic discussions in societies outside the sovereign borders of China. Over the following months, participants in our Working Group on Chinese Influence Activities in the United States researched and drafted eight chapters assessing the nature and extent of Chinas influence-seeking activities in different sectors of American society, while our international associates contributed overviews of these efforts in eight other developed countries. The draft papers were discussed in several follow-up meetings and initially released as a report in November 2018. Following the release, we made modest revisions in response to new information and some specific concerns that were subsequently raised. This book represents the final version of our working group report.

As we stress repeatedly in our Introduction, every country has the right to promote its policies, values, and achievements abroad, so long as they do so through internationally accepted means of open engagement and persuasion, what is often referred to as soft power or public diplomacy. But increasingly, policy makers, analysts, and civic leaders in the worlds democracies find themselves confronting a very different form of power projection by the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). This entails efforts to advance the interest of the Chinese Communist Party by shaping, even constraining, policy discourse abroad in ways that are sometimes overt, but that also covertly disguise the origin and intent of the influence-seeking activity.
