國際關係
/guójì guānxi/Roman
English meaning: International Relations
Definition
The study and practice of relations between nations. Taiwan's unique international position — recognized formally by very few countries due to PRC pressure — makes it a fascinating case study in international law and diplomacy. The Taiwan Strait issue is a central concern in US-China-India strategic calculus.
Example
“臺灣的國際關係因特殊地位而複雜多變。”
In English: “Taiwan's international relations are complex due to its unique status.”
Literary Heritage
“為政以德,譬如北辰,居其所而眾星共之。”
/Wéi zhèng yǐ dé, pì rú běi chén, jū qí suǒ ér zhòng xīng gòng zhī./
“He who governs by virtue is like the North Star: it occupies its place while all the other stars pay homage to it.”
