The United States and China are arguably the most globally
consequential actors of the early twenty first century, and look
set to remain so into the foreseeable future. This volume seeks to
highlight that American images of China are responsible for
constructing certain truths and realities about that country and
its people. It also introduces the understanding that these images
have always been inextricable from the enactment and justification
of US China policies in Washington, and that those policies
themselves are active in the production and reproduction of imagery
and in the protection of American identity when seemingly
threatened by that of China. Demonstrating how past American images
of China are vital to understanding the nature and significance of
those which circulate today, Turner addresses three key questions:
What have been the dominant American images of China and the
Chinese across the full lifespan of Sino-US relations? How have
historical and contemporary American images of China and the
Chinese enabled and justified US China policy? What role does US
China policy play in the production and reproduction of American
images of China? Exploring and evaluating a wide-ranging variety of
sources including films and television programmes, newspaper and
magazine articles, the records and journals of politicians and
diplomats and governmental documents including speeches and legal
declarations this work will be of great interest to students and
scholars of US foreign policy, American politics, China studies and
international relations.
