United States and China

Description
About the author

The break of the PRC leadership with the general line of the communist movement and the anti-Sovietism of Mao and his group, likened to obscurantism, caused a tendency in the United States to revise its policy toward the PRC. Maoism became a significant factor in U.S.-China relations, a factor determining the desire of certain circles in the U.S. to “build bridges” with Beijing on an anti-Soviet basis. The author, who has been in the U.S. for a number of years, tried in his book to lift the veil with which the ruling circles of both Washington and Beijing cover their relations.

The author describes the behind-the-scenes diplomacy of the Americans, the influential “Chinese lobby” still active in the United States, the cautious and covert attempts of Washington and Beijing to establish a complex system of relations through negotiations in Warsaw, and, finally, the “tacit understanding” between Beijing and Washington on the issue of Vietnam.
