Yin-Yang Theory and International Relations： through the Lens of I Ching
Based on a study of/Ching or Book of Changes, and some related ideas of Chinese geomancy, Fengshui, the paper tries to develop a new interdisciplinary analytical method on the theoretical base, i.e., the Trigrams＇ Combination and Permutation （TCP） . This analytical method could be applied to constitute the following codes for reference in the analysis of international relations： （1） as an analytical model to deconstruct the diverse international phenomena via the traditional oriental philosophy, （2） as a mirror or medium to observe international conflicts, aiding communications and achievement of moral or ethical consensus through soft power, and （3） as a theoretical tool to constitute a new discourse in Chinese IR studies.
