In light of the intertwining logics of military competition and
economic interdependence at play in US-China relations, Trading
with the Enemy examines how the United States has balanced its
potentially conflicting national security and economic interests in
its relationship with the People's Republic of China (PRC). To do
so, Hugo Meijer investigates a strategically sensitive yet
under-explored facet of US-China relations: the making of American
export control policy on military-related technology transfers to
China since 1979. Trading with the Enemy is the first monograph on
this dimension of the US-China relationship in the post-Cold War.
Based on 199 interviews, declassified documents, and diplomatic
cables leaked by Wikileaks, two major findings emerge from this
book. First, the US is no longer able to apply a strategy of
military/technology containment of China in the same way it did
with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. This is because of the
erosion of its capacity to restrict the transfer of
military-related technology to the PRC. Secondly, a growing number
of actors in Washington have reassessed the nexus between national
security and economic interests at stake in the US-China
relationship - by moving beyond the Cold War trade-off between the
two - in order to maintain American military preeminence vis-a-vis
its strategic rivals. By focusing on how states manage the
heterogeneous and potentially competing security and economic
interests at stake in a bilateral relationship, this book seeks to
shed light on the evolving character of interstate rivalry in a
globalized economy, where rivals in the military realm are also
economically interdependent.
