Omschrijving
The biggest untapped market in the world? The last great communist threat? The free-trade partner? The human rights scourge? This text provides a front-row seat to the memorable scenes in the American debate over China policy since 1978.
Remarkably successful in telling big stories through collections of documents. . . . The documents capture both the passionate spirit of the debates and the widespread search for better understanding of the Chinese government and peoples.
Not only does this book provide a firsthand intellectual history of the debate, but it also allows both sides of the debate to speak for themselves without any intervening interpretation by a second party. . . . This book will provoke, push, and prod you on every important issue, and perhaps change your perceptions in regards to the most appropriate American policies toward China. The selection of original documents . . . are all helpful in allowing the reader to understand past U.S. China policy, and the selection of articles addresses the pros and cons of specific China policies.
China Cross Talk is a useful compilation, convenient for both specialists and students.
A valuable endeavor for both teachers and students, one that will prove useful in current policy debates as well as in the classroom.
The U.S.-China relationship is today the most difficult bilateral relationship for the United States, and one of the most important bilateral relationships for the world. The raging debates encapsulated in the valuable book remind us that we have a great deal at stake in China, and that it is imperative that America get China policy right.
