AMERICA IN THE WORLD

Isolating the Enemy

Engaging China

Diplomatic Strategy in China and the United States, 1953–1956

Fifty Years of SinoAmerican Relations Edited by Anne F. Thurston

Tao Wang

Tao Wang offers a new account of Sino– American relations in the mid-1950s that situates the two great powers in their international context. He reveals how both the United States and China adopted a policy of attempting to isolate their adversary and explores how Chinese and American leaders perceived and reacted to each other’s strategies.

This book brings together leading China specialists to offer a retrospective on relations between the United States and China over the last half-century to consider what might come next. The contributors include academics, leaders of China-related nongovernmental organizations, and former diplomats and government officials.
