a| "Over a relatively short period of time, Beijing moved from dismissing the UN to embracing it. How are we to make sense of the People's Republic of China's (PRC) embrace of the UN, and what does its engagement mean in larger terms? Is it a 'supporter' that takes its fair share of responsibilities, or a 'spoiler' that seeks to transform the UN's contribution to world order? Certainly, it is difficult to label it a 'shirker' in the last decade or more, given Beijing's apparent appreciation of the UN, its provision of public goods to the organization, and its stated desire to offer 'Chinese wisdom and a Chinese approach to solving the problems facing mankind'. This study traces questions such as these focusing directly on Beijing's involvement in one of the most contentious areas of UN activity-human protection-contentious because the norm of human protection tips the balance away from the UN's Westphalian state-based profile, towards the provision of greater protection for the security of individuals and their individual liberties. The argument that follows shows that, as an ever-more crucial actor within the United Nations, Beijing's rhetoric and some of its practices are playing an increasingly important role in determining how this norm is articulated and interpreted. In some cases, the PRC is also influencing how these ideas of human protection are implemented. At stake in the questions this book tackles is both how we understand the PRC as a participant in shaping global order, and the future of some of the core norms that constitute global order"--
