摘要
For several decades,diverse IR theories in China have been following the trails of western scholars,which are lacking distinctive Chinese characteristics and might not be a good fit for oriental culture in general.So,this paper offers some analyses based on a study of the Zhouyi or I Ching,the'Book of Changes',combined with some related ideas in Chinese geomancy,Fengshui.The author seek to develop a new interdisciplinary analytical method on a theoretical base he calls Trigram Combinations and Permutations(TCP),which may explain how diverse international issues come into being and suggest an ideal structure as a stable basis for sustainable development in international relations from the perspective of Chinese traditional philosophy and the interaction between Yin and Yang.
For several decades, diverse IR theories in China have been following the trails of western scholars, which are lacking distinctive Chinese characteristics and might not be a good fit for oriental culture in general. So, this paper offers some analyses based on a study of the Zhouyi or I Ching, the ＂Book of Changes＂, combined with some related ideas in Chinese geomancy, Fengshui. The author seek to develop a new interdisciplinary analytical method on a theoretical base he calls Trigram Combinations and Permutations （TCP）, which may explain how diverse international issues come into being and suggest an ideal structure as a stable basis for sustainable development in international relations from the perspective of Chinese traditional philosophy and the interaction between Yin and Yang.
