The Us and China “a Marriage Made in Renminbi-Yuan”

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.

China has seen massive economic growth in the past few decades. Since its reopening in the 1970s, the country has begun trading and buying foreign currencies with western nations like the United States. When the housing crisis which began to unravel in 2007 really hit the American economy hard, China was more than happy to step in and put up funding to help keep the American economy, one of its biggest customers, in a delicate balance. Unfortunately, the American economy has been incredibly slow to recover from the last major recession. As such, it has increased its dependence on Chinese funding to back American debt.

As every day passes China grows stronger in every aspect and eventually they will be knocking on America’s doorstep in each of those categories. Economically, China is closing rapidly, but even the sleeping giant as Napoleon Bonaparte called it, has its limits. To be blunt, China is resource hungry and who knows what their country will do next. With the level of nationalism that their people have, China could go in multiple directions. For example, let us look at both China attempting to exert control over the South China Sea and also with the Senkaku Islands. Both of these areas are becoming more and more hostile, which ultimately could lead to deadly military engagements. With that being said, Blij also proposes an argument that I have been pondering for a while and that is a potential cold war between the U.S.A. and China. On the outside it seems as if there is a potential collision course to that conclusion. However, Blij does offer an interesting solution to this possibility and it is one that I believe should be the strongest takeaway. Blij suggests that trade, scientific, cultural and educational links and exchanges can be the solution to this issue. After all, China is responsible for many of the essential aspects to our life. Therefore, the least we as Americans can do is learn the various geographical aspects that encircle

the main plant is in Shanghai it has two others in Fuzhou and Hanghou. The company has some

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

The United States and China Relation started since 1784, but it wasn’t until 1970’s when The United States finally recognize the communist people from China. This led us to be influenced by their culture, politics, but the most important economically. The relation of these two countries was not so good at the beginning, since China is a communist country that was involved with many countries that were in war. The interaction of these countries goes back to 1785 when the first Chinese sailors arrived to Baltimore looking for wealth and then it increases in 1847 with the Gold Rush in San Francisco that attracted many Asian Immigrants in look for new opportunities. The U.S. Department of State mentions in their archive United States Relations

relations with one of its most necessary trade partners and, potentially, a necessary ally in relations in Asia, particularly the Korean Peninsula. However, there are negative implications of President Trump’s “America First” approach to politics, as it will further weaken an already tense relationship between the United States and China in regards to issues such as North Korea, climate change, global leadership and the economy.

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

Back then we werent very good friends with China but time goes on and more oppurtonities come.Today America has created a law in which it will open a door for china. This policy began in (1899,1900)for the protection of equal privileges among countries trading with China and in support of Chinese territorial and administrative integrity.The crisis in China coincided with several major developments in the United States. A new interest in foreign markets had emerged there following the economic depression of the 1890s. The United States also had just gained the Philippines, Guam, and Hawaii as a result of the Spanish-American War and was becoming increasingly interested in China, where American textile manufacturers had found markets for cheap cotton goods.

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

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

In history, We often point to the 1970s as the starting point for US-China trade, but I found that actually it can go back to the 18th century after the American Revolution. At that time, Americans got tea, silk, and porcelain was primarily through the British East India Company, but there was also a lot of smuggling going on at the same time. Anyway, it wasn't that the Americans went to China to get these goods (Christina). Later, Americans got well involved in the China trade after they beat the British in the revolution. After the war finished, the British East India Company's monopoly did not exist any more, so the Americans could go to China and they did by driving (Christina). Besides, another element that gave them the financial

Japan, however, isn’t the sole country of the Eastern Asia region that’s facing economic conflicts with the U.S. The United States suffers a similar foreign trade issue with China as it does with Japan, just on a much lager scale. Despite the $481.8 million that the U.S. spends on Chinese products, it only receives $116.1 million in terms of Chinese purchases of American products, thereby leaving the US with an approximately $365.7 million undesirable trade imbalance. Another issue concerning the United States and China is China’s remarkable economic growth in the past number of decades, averaging at about 7.9% since 1980, which poses it as a large threat to the

On May 4, the United States and China signed a 10 point trade deal which includes “recognition of the importance of China’s One Belt and One Road (OBOR) Initiative” by the United States and decided “to send delegates to attain the Belt and Road Forum in Beijing.” The United States official policy towards China is “to build a positive, cooperative, and comprehensive relationship by expanding areas of cooperation and addressing areas of disagreement.” Even, China’s policies and actions in the East Asian region are conflicting with U.S. interests; it is cooperating on the global stage, hence according to Secretary Tillerson, the relationship between US and China will “continues to grow and mature.”
