The Recovery of Cultural Heritage Objects as a Source of Soft Power in China

Master thesis | Asian Studies (60 EC) (MA)

Restitution of art from abroad has been a useful tool to increase the soft power of China both abroad and domestically between 2009 and 2019. The Chinese government has dedicated large resources to recover art of Chinese origin from abroad, as well as conducted various projects that used art as a tool of soft power, for instance in the South China Sea or in international law enforcement cooperation.
