“…As demonstrated in the model, the increasing pressure of popular nationalism has some potential to push the Chinese government into toughening its foreign policy to maintain its legitimacy (Gries et al, 2016). This in turn strengthens the power of Chinese popular nationalism.…”

This study extends the leisure constraint model by examining the role that popular nationalism has in Chinese outbound travel. Using a case study approach based on the 2012 Diaoyu/Senkaku Island Incident between China and Japan, the study demonstrates how Chinese popular nationalism has the potential to shape the geopolitical environment of all outbound Chinese tourism. The study proposes a new model that can be used to illustrate how popular nationalism may affect bilateral tourism in other settings. Findings of this study offer important insights for both scholars and practitioners contributing to the understanding of the impact of Chinese popular nationalism on bilateral tourism flows.

“…Feelings towards Japan are relatively more polarised, as there are also more students liking that country as compared to North Korea. While negative feelings towards the island nation are well document-ed in the literature on anti-Japanese sentiments (Gries, Steiger, and Wang 2016;He 2007;Reilly 2012;Weiss 2014), the revealed cold feelings towards North Korea definitely merit further research. Next, I employ multivariate regression techniques to examine the effects of various factors on students' feelings towards particular countries.…”

This study examines Chinese university students' feelings towards foreign countries, using original high-quality survey data collected in 2014 at three top universities in Beijing. First, elite Chinese students' perceptions of specific countries are revealed. Being from top universities, these individuals will have great influence on China's future politics and international relations. It is thus important to gauge their perceptions of other countries. They generally feel warmly towards the European Union, Russia, and the United States, but harbour cold feelings towards Northeast Asian neighbours (Japan and the two Koreas). Second, this study finds that the effects of the socio-demographic and political factors underlying students' feelings differ greatly from country to country. I construct various social profiles of the students (dis)liking particular countries. Third, this study establishes a connection between nationalism and feelings towards particular countries. Chinese nationalism is not equally targeted at all other countries. While it elevates animosity mainly against Japan and the US, it promotes a closer rapport with North Korea and Russia.

“…Chinese popular nationalists, furthermore, directed their ire not just at Japan but also the CCP for "weak" responses to perceived Japanese provocations. 37 These nationalists, in other words, were directing the party-state's own language of nationalist legitimation back towards it. 38 In short, the 2008 Beijing Olympics and global financial crisis appear to have doomed Obama's attempted reset of US-China relations before he even took office.…”
