Abstract
Since the Cold War,
the China – New Zealand relations have made great progress. New Zealand’s
multiple connections with China are more diverse than at any other time in the
history. This article explores the relations between the two countries since
the Cold War. In the context of the rise of China in the Asia-Pacific region,
this examination is critical and has implications for New Zealand to pride
itself on maintaining an independent foreign policy to protect its own
sovereign interests while balancing economic security and maintaining a
productive and respectful relationship with a great power like China.
