Abstract
This paper employs power transition theory to determine whether China has reached a status of power through which it can be called a hegemony. Using several indicators, it measures power parity as well as dissatisfaction to determine China’s power and its intention to use it. China’s power is further explored by delving deeper into the One Belt One Road Initiative (OBOR) and its influence on the European Union. Finally, using a case study of human rights violations, it aims to answer how influence garnered through power and the OBOR policy inhibits EU action against human rights violation. The paper recommends two modes of action for the EU to reclaim control and take against human rights abuses.
