Summary/Abstract: The authors discuss the Chinese military concept of three warfares, involving the integration of different techniques, which are specific to psychological, media and legal operations, in the context of active defence. To better illustrate the non-military ways of promoting national interests, some aspects related to the political, economic and financial operations, carried out recently with China’s major involvement, an expression of China’s frequent discontent with its own position in the international and regional financial institutions, are mentioned, being shown that China is interested in developing a comprehensive strategy that, in addition to the military dimension, gives priority to non-military means of action.
