New book to elaborate vision of community of shared future for humanity

A book was published Sunday in Beijing to elaborate the concept of the community of a shared future for humanity.

The book, titled "The World and China: Build a Community of Shared Future for Mankind," explained what the concept is and how it presents a new idea for cooperation among countries and settlement of disputes through negotiation and exchanges, said Wang Tong, author of the book and head of the China Development Research Institute, a Beijing-based think tank.

The book was published by the Party School of the Communist Party of China Central Committee publishing house.

"The main purpose of writing this book is to explain the ideas originated in China and express the voice from China," Wang said. "The rapid economic and social development in China will offer valuable reference to other countries."
