This dissertation examines China's participation in the United Nations (UN). There are two research components in this study. First, a pattern of China's multilateral diplomatic behavior in the UN is found by examining China's behaviors toward peacekeeping operations and arm control issues during different periods determined by leadership, Mao, Deng, and Jiang respectively. Since its entry in 1971, China has gradually acknowledged the importance of international norms and behaves more and more cooperatively in the UN. Second, combining both domestic and international variables and employing theories from realism and constructivism, a model is proposed to explain these behavioral changes. Internationally, China's external security environment changes over time; domestically, its projected self-image has altered, leading to changes in its view of security. With the combination of these two variables, China's participation in the UN has also changed. Despite the changes in its projected self-image and in the external security environment, China's view of its own sovereignty has been constant and follows the principle of Westphalia, which emphasizes that sovereignty is based on territoriality and the exclusion of external actors from domestic authority. Based on this model, the dissertation predicts that China will behave more cooperative and responsive in the UN but will continue using the UN as a tool to protect its own sovereignty.
