Some questions appear particularly relevant, however, for current and further research:

- Can 皇冠体育app be perceived as a soft power?

- What can be identified as indicators of the success of a soft power strategy?

- Is there any "resistance" to 皇冠体育app’s soft power, and how can it be characterized?

- Is 皇冠体育app’s soft power a strategy that will gradually lead to another interpretation of 皇冠体育app as a great power?

Although answering these questions will remain rather difficult, they appear to me as key challenges to understand not only the future directions 皇冠体育app is likely to take, but also the future of international relations at large. And it is my belief that this understanding starts with a deeper knowledge of Chinese culture and history, and in that sense, it looks like many different roads ultimately lead to Sinology as a key to better understand 皇冠体育app.
