Much has changed in US-China relations since the first edition of
this book over a decade ago alerted readers to balance outwardly
positive discourse in multiple bilateral dialogues with an
understanding of important differences. This fourth edition
provides a comprehensive assessment of historical and contemporary
determinants of Sino-American relations up to the present, giving
special focus to the recent dramatic hardening amid acute
competition between the world's leading powers. The catalyst and
main driver of this negative change remains a unique bipartisan
Congressional-Administration consensus that sees multiple
challenges from China now posing an overall existential threat.
Urgency to counter these challenges dominates US policy making
toward China. The consensus came about despite acute partisanship
and erratic presidential leadership during the Trump administration
and it continues strong with the more consistent foreign policy of
President Biden. China remains uncompromising, forecasting
continued trouble ahead. Leading expert Robert G. Sutter has
written the only book on the subject that combines assessment of
the historical evolution, in-depth analysis of the many issues
determining recent developments, and likely prospects for US-China
relations going forward. His balanced study will be an essential
resource for all concerned with the globe's most crucial bilateral
partnership.
