Beskrivning
Now fully revised and updated, The United States and China offers a comprehensive synthesis of US-Chinese relations from initial contact to the present. Balancing the modern (1784–1949) and contemporary (1949–present) periods, Dong Wang retraces centuries of interaction between two of the world’s great powers from the perspective of both sides. She examines state-to-state diplomacy, as well as economic, social, military, religious, and cultural interplay within varying national and international contexts. As China itself continues to grow in global importance, so too does the US-Chinese relationship, and this book provides an essential grounding for understanding its past, present, and possible futures.

Recensioner i media

Dong Wang’s outstanding volume offers uniquely a comprehensive treatment and a balanced assessment of Chinese and American perspectives in its masterful examination of the 240-year history of US-China relations. Many important lessons and insights offered along the way deepen understanding and urge moderation. They warrant careful consideration even from those on both sides now committed to zero-sum rivalry.
