With China's rapid ascendance to great power status, the U.S.-China
relationship has become one of the most important international
relationships in the world today. This book explores relations
between the U.S. and China, focusing in particular on China
policymaking in the U.S. Congress, which has been unusually active
in the development of this relationship. Based on detailed analysis
of China bills introduced in Congress over the past three decades,
it provides detailed analysis of how Congressional policymaking
works in practice, and explores the most controversial issues in
U.S.-China relations: Taiwan, trade and human rights. It considers
the voting patterns and party divisions on these issues, showing
that liberals and conservatives often form an alliance concerning
China because China's authoritarian regime, human rights problems,
soaring trade surplus with the U.S and rising military power
attract criticism from both camps. It also argues that
congressional committees, bicameralism and presidential veto make
it virtually impossible for Congress to legislate on China, despite
its intense preferences, and therefore Congress often turns to
informal - but no less effective - means to exert influence on
China policy, such as framing public opinion and generating
situations that result in anticipated reactions by the executive
branch or Beijing.
