Reviews
Robert Sutter, long recognized as one of the nation's leading analysts and historians of Chinese-American relations, now takes the story through the early months of the Trump administration-to which he does not give high marks for its policies toward East Asia. -- Warren Cohen, emeritus, University of Maryland, Baltimore County
In this latest edition of US-Chinese Relations, Robert Sutter provides a timely analysis of perhaps the most consequential bilateral relationship in international politics. His work is at once informed by a deep understanding of the past and focused on contemporary challenges and opportunities faced by the world's reigning superpower and its rising counterpart. A balanced and insightful account, this is a must read for policy makers, scholars, and students alike during a crucial period of geostrategic transformation in the Indo-Pacific region. -- Jingdong Yuan, University of Sydney
Robert Sutter has produced an excellent introduction to one of the world's most consequential bilateral relationships. In a single volume, he provides a concise history of US-China relations from the late eighteenth century to the present, followed by a clear-headed forecast of the future. This new edition offers an updated overview of the major issues in the relationship-from trade, human rights, and Taiwan to climate change and international security. Sutter also adds a consideration of analysis of the maritime disputes in East Asia and the prospects for Sino-American relations in the Trump Administration. Consistently balanced and insightful, this is the text I regularly assign in my courses on the relationship between the United States and China. -- Harry Harding, University of Virginia
