China Relation Research Paper

This caused American and Communist Chinese forces to fight each other during the Korean War, which began in 1949. Communist threats against Taiwan in the 1950's drove the U.S. and the Chinese Communists to the brink of nuclear war. The U.S. went to war in Vietnam in part to prevent the expansion of Chinese Communism. For the United States, China today is neither an outright enemy, nor a trusted friend. Today tensions exist because of the kind of government China has, and the actions it takes.

Since 1899, America has maintained an open door policy with China. Throughout the years, relations between the United States and China have changed with several effects on both countries caused by the open door policy.

The writer of this article is the professor of China-US relations in Cornell University. So this is a relatively reliable source. I think the relationship between the U.S. and China can also reflect U.S. Attitude towards communism after the cold war. I can use it in the extending of my term

Throughout history, the U.S. has had a rocky relationship with China. According to Donald Snow in his textbook Cases in American Foreign Policy, China has always held a “special place in the American psyche” (30) as American history seems to have revolved around China: Columbus discovered America because he was trying to find China, Chinese immigrants were central players in the expansion of the Transcontinental Railroad making its way west. Snow argues that this “special” relationship with China, led to overinvolvement on the part of Americans in China. American missionaries were the most prevalent compared to missionaries from other countries during the first half of the twentieth century. Americans took a large amount of interest when the Kuomintang Party, a Chinese

The relationship between the United States and China would prove crucial for one side in the future. In 1941, Japan went to war with the U.S. because of embargoes put on oil. One of the reasons for the embargoes was that Japan had violated the Open Door Policy. Japan would later be defeated in 1945. Unfortunately, in 1949, China had a civil war, in which the communists were victorious. The communists ended all special privileges to foreigners and made the Open Door Policy meaningless

During World War Two The United States and China had a strong allyship. During the war the United states helped china with basic training. In some ways the U.S. saved China during World War II from Japan. One example of this is when japan attacked china and devastated the citizens. It was at this point when the U.S troops stepped in and helped push out the Japanese by giving

U.S.A started to open the link between China and the U.S.A by sending in a U.S table tennis team in 1971/1972, which can be proved by the “BBC Cold War Programme.” President Nixon then went to visit China in 1972 which was one of the key turning points in China’s relationship with the west. A quote from Nixon “we can not be cut off from a quarter of the worlds population” proves that Nixon and the U.S.A had realised how big China was, and wanted to ally. Another quote from the “Modern World China Textbook” from President Nixon “The U.S and China have no fudamental interests that need to collide.” Proves that the most powerful men in the world were recognising China as an important nation a major power with the world influence!. This was unlike the situation in 1960 when China was open to be exploited by the west. Since the Nixon visit other western leaders that have made frequent visits to China. Trade has developed and tourism is well established. Approximately 120,000 Chinese students studied in the U.S.A since 1978.

As I understand the historical connection between China and United States, they were and in some sense still are both rivals, which began with Mao Zedong driving American-supported Chang out of China soon after the unconditional surrender of the defeat of aggressive Imperial Japan in 1945. Mao took over China and forced Chang to beat a hasty retreat to Taiwan Island. Then in l950, the world witnessed the fierce armed confrontation between Mao led China versus the United Nations' forces with the full backing of United States during the three year Korean War which eventually became a stalemate to this day. Then there was another world-shattering war between U.S. and Communist Soviet-China over the devastating Vietnam. So China had been at

NW China would be my choice because of it’s natural resources, high population, and stable climate. Because NW China is the self proclaimed “rice bowl” producing tea, rice, and other crops there would always be jobs and food to feed the public. I would live near Hong Kong. I have a personal preference of more populated areas, as I have lived in one for most of my life. I wouldn’t do well in the western side of China where it is more desolate. In addition to that the climate of NW China is very similar to Iowa’s climate, and they are close to each other when speaking of latitude. Des Moines sits at 93º 36' W, and Hong Kong at 114.1095° E. Since the climate is similar, I would know what to expect and prepare for in all of the seasons. In conclusion

Since the fall of the Soviet Union, the Cold War was over, making the U.S. the only superpower left in the world. This has made the international system much more tranquil, and relaxed. The only country potentially powerful besides the U.S., is China. Many Americans fear China, not only because they are communist, but also because of their huge population. Their population is 1.3 billion people, which accounts 1/5th of the world’s population. As one of the only potential superpowers in the world, it would be in the best interest of all Americans if the U.S. and China became allies, instead of enemies. Peace and development, economic prosperity and social progress, are goals that both of

The United States needs to provide more support to countries in the South China Sea to stop China's advancement in the area. If the United States does not support the Philippines, Taiwan and other countries in the immediate area China could deny access to all other countries. This could then lead China to more land expansion and potentially deny access to all countries in Southeast Asia. The waters of the South China Sea provide a majority of the food to the people living through fishing and shipping routes. The United States needs to help countries currently being oppressed by China by providing different forms of support, dispute land claims being made by China to an international audience, and most importantly to stop an all out war from breaking out.

China's Relationship With The West There is great concern in the West about the issue of human rights in China. Is the West able to have any influence over this issue? 1. Pressure On China High-level visits to China from important political people such as the President, MPs and the Prime Minister, put extreme pressure on China and the government. As well as pressure, they also bring a mixture of criticism, praises, suggestions and proposals.

The relationship between China and the United States is complex on numerous levels. In most issues, the United States and China could not be described as either allies or enemies. From the U.S. perspective, China is not an adversary, but more of a competitor and sometimes, a partner. There was a generally positive relationship between the two countries since the Qing dynasty in the late 19th century as they released China from isolationism. China continued to be generally friendly with the U.S. during the Open Door Policy period up to World War II. It was not until Communism came to power and established the Peoples’ Republic of China in 1949 that relations began to become tense. The U.S. government was unwilling to recognize the newly established government in China and the development of Taiwan introduced more conflict.

East and west. The relationship between the two has never been truly set in stone. Both Europe and Asia have been through many large-scale power shifts throughout the millennia. Empires have risen – and inevitably been razed. If not by conquerors, then by time itself. These empires were often led by those who yearned to increase their land and holdings, and because of this the tendrils of civilization often stretched to seek uncharted territory. This undying curiosity eventually culminated in what is now referred to as the “Age of Discovery,” which spanned from the 1500s to the 1800s. By the beginning of the 20th century, most of the world’s lands had already been discovered. Trade links between China and Europe had been around since the Hellenic Age. And in the year 1900 it had been 124 years since the founding of the United States of America. Cross the Pacific Ocean, and one would find themselves face-to-face with the United States’ distant neighbor, East Asia. In East Asia, two of the most historically significant nations are China and Japan. For a number of reasons, – which will be detailed further later on – the early 1900s were a somewhat tumultuous time for both of said nations. The 20th century was by and large a time of political and economic power consolidation for both China and Japan. It is arguable that the United States played an integral role in this consolidation. The interactions between the United States, China, and Japan highlight a time when the way that

In the past 70 years, no one can deny that great changes such as modernization and globalization have brought dramatic social, economic, political and cultural impact on every aspects of Chinese society. However, does this mean there’s a totally new way for Chinese people to relate to one another in modern Chinese nation-state? To answer this question, a rethinking of Fei’s theory in his book from the soil the foundations of Chinese society is needed. As a key word to understand the traditional Chinese relationship, the “mode of differential association” summarizes three characters of this kind of society: acquaintance society based on small-scale peasant economy, patrilineal relationship as the core of social relationships and rite order whose members are differentiated by the sequence of ethics. In this essay, I will try to summarize new changes in contemporary Chinese interpersonal relationship from two aspects. Then I will examine the views that insist there’s no new way in relationship. It will be argued that there’s a mixture of Chaxugeju and new way in Chinese interpersonal relationship and a trend that young citizens tend to have a new relation with others while elder generation still relate to one another base on chaxugeju.
