The study focuses on the transformation of China’s grand strategy in the context of the ongoing, long-term Sino-US strategic rivalry. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in the study of China’s grand strategy in global politics. To date, at the international level, the relevant study has been overwhelmingly dominated by the American school and narrative based on American realism. This paper therefore conducts the relevant research from a Chinese perspective. The study explores the evolution of the US China policy and the transformation of China’s grand strategy in the context of the Sino-US strategic rivalry. In particular, it demonstrates the linkage between China’s grand strategy evolution and the Sino-US relations. Furthermore, it provides an analysis of the implications of China’s grand strategy transformation. The research methodologies mainly contain comparative, analytical and inductive approaches. A conceptual framework is outlined, illustrating how the US policy and approaches towards China navigate the Sino-US rivalry and transform China’s grand strategy-making and its foreign policy implementation. The author concludes that it is the strategic rivalry and US policy towards China that are transforming China’s “grand strategy” from a defensive to an offensive model. Bloc-driven policy is one of the defining factors in the Chinese-American confrontation. However, in the case of the U.S., the obvious anti-Chinese orientation of the blocs created by Washington may cause a negative reaction from potential allies. In turn, China, relying on the states of the Global South, is also building a network of global partnerships in which such structures as the BRICS, which is becoming increasingly attractive to developing countries. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) is also a significant player, and if it expands further, it could become the largest military-political bloc in the Eurasian space.

Рассмотрена трансформация «большой стратегии» Китайской Народной Республики (КНР) через призму продолжающегося долгосрочного стратегического соперничества КНР - США. В последние годы среди исследователей растет популярность изучения «большой стратегии» КНР в глобальной политике, хотя до сих пор в международном академическом сообществе в изучении этой темы доминирует американская школа, основанная на американском реализме. Задачи исследования - взглянуть на «большую стратегию» Китая с точки зрения самой КНР, изучить эволюцию китайской политики США и трансформацию «большой стратегии» КНР в эпоху стратегического соперничества. В частности, продемонстрирована связь между эволюцией «большой стратегии» КНР и состоянием китайско-американских отношений. Также проанализированы последствия трансформации «большой стратегии» КНР. Методологически исследование опирается на сравнительный анализ. Описана концептуальная структура, иллюстрирующая, как политика и подходы США в отношении КНР управляют китайско-американским соперничеством и трансформируют «большую стратегию» КНР, оказывая влияние на реализацию внешней политики Китая. Автор приходит к выводу, что именно стратегическое соперничество и политика США в отношении Китая приводят к трансформации «большой стратегии» КНР из защитной в наступательную модель. Блоковая политика выступает одним из определяющих факторов китайско-американского противостояния, однако в случае США явная антикитайская направленность блоков, создаваемых Вашингтоном, может вызвать негативную реакцию потенциальных союзников. В свою очередь, Китай, опираясь на государства Глобального Юга, также выстраивает сеть глобальных партнерств, в которой значимую роль могут сыграть такие структуры, как БРИКС, которая становится все более притягательной для развивающихся стран, и Шанхайская организация сотрудничества (ШОС), которая в случае нового расширения способна стать крупнейшим военно-политическим блоком на евразийском пространстве.
