Summary:China’s use of funding, voting, and discursive tactics shapes outcomes at international institutions. A less understood theme of China’s influence are the PRC’s international civil servants that form part of the United Nations bureaucracy. What is China’s ‘bureaucratic footprint’ at the United Nations?
