A New Approach for Dialogue in the Post-American Era: Telling Chinese Stories with Cultural Confidence

摘要

The arrival of the post-American era means the end of American global hegemony, the reshaping of international order, and the pluralistic participation in global governance. And when the world structure changes, it is also the time for China to reshape its international image. Therefore, in the post-American era, China should change its external communication methods, change its narrative method, and adopt the path of "telling Chinese stories" to convey China's voice. This article takes "storytelling" as the core, and explains how to shape the China's image with a strong belief in cultural confidence starting from the listener of the story, the content of the story, the discourse of the story, and the speaker of the story. The maximization of the effect of external communication in the narrative will help construct the external image of China's peaceful rise.
