About this book
Simei Qing offers a new perspective on relations between the U.S. and China after World War II. Based on American, Russian, and newly declassified Chinese sources, this book reveals rarely examined assumptions entrenched in mainstream policy debates on both sides, and sheds light on the origins and development of U.S.–China confrontations.
Reviews
Simei Qing is the most extraordinary historian to come out of China since the floodgates opened in the 1980s. In this long-awaited book, she uses important new Chinese sources, Guomindang as well as Communist, and her training in the sociology of knowledge to provide remarkable insights into Chinese–American relations in the 1940s and 1950s. The study of Chinese–American relations will never be the same.

Simei Qing is an important and innovative scholar in the field of modern China’s international relations. This is a bold and pioneering work that transcends conventional diplomatic history to get at the intellectual, social, and psychological roots of Sino–American relations.

Qing’s nuanced analysis of the roots of Chinese Communist–American conflict from the end of World War II to 1960 enriches our understanding of this often tragic period. In addition to her keen appreciation for the cultural dimension of politics, her prodigious use of new Chinese sources adds unique elements to a work of great substance.
