This article investigates the socialization of China into international society in the late nineteenth century by adopting the theoretical framework of the International Society (English School) approach. Scholarship on China’s recent behavior within international society has suggested that China is beginning to be "socialized" into the society. However, this is misleading in that it assumes that China was not socialized prior to embarking on its policy of reform and opening. China’s socialization took place in the late nineteenth century in the wake of imperialism, and its encounter with international society has left a profound mark on China’s outlook on the world. The article investigates how key Chinese intellectuals at this time perceived international society. It provides some implications for the International Society approach and China’s place in this society today.
