Can We Leverage China to Reduce U.S. Burden in Asia
Abstract
The relationship between China and the United States will most likely determine the global economic and political landscape for the twenty-first Century. China and the United States are finding new common ground and deepening their cooperation on issues of UN reform, international anti-terrorist campaign, non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, controlling regional conflicts especially in Asia, and keeping a stable supply of petroleum and other energy resources. The two countries' demands on each other are headed for a balance. China's relations with Asian countries are now entering a new era and are expanding in all directions. The modernization and economic growth of China and its impact on Asia creates a complex situation for the U.S., but cooperation must be the underlining strategy in dealing with China to create a win-win situation and avoid conflict. This project will compare the contrasting policies and strategies of the United States and China revealing that the U.S. can leverage this new China to its advantage to reduce U.S. military and economic burden in Asia.
