The author is correct to assert that China constitutes, by far, the biggest national challenge to America''s position in the world today." - The Wall Street Journal "Provocative... detailed and rigorous. [Pillsbury is] right that for Washington, assessing the nature of China''s ambition, and responding to it effectively, may be the central foreign policy challenge of our time." - Newsweek "Pungently written and rich in detail, this book deserves to enter the mainstream ofdebate over the future of U.S. Chinese relations." - Foreign Affairs "The Hundred-Year Marathon looks at the critical issues of who is in fact making policy in the Chinese capital and, as a result, it will be read, analyzed and debated for years. Think of Pillsbury as our time''s Paul Revere." - Gordon Chang, The National Interest "This is a highly engaging and thought-provoking read. It does what few books do well, and that is to mix scholarship, policy, and memoir-style writing in an accessible but still intellectually rich fashion. Pillsbury . draw[s] on his extensive knowledge of Chinese historical military writings and theory as well as his interactions with Chinese defectors and senior military officers to develop a compelling analytical defense of this thesis. In the end, whether you agree with Pillsbury or not, the book is well worth a careful read." - Elizabeth Economy, Council on Foreign Relations"Despite dealing with a weighty subject, Pillsbury says everything that he wants to say . [in] this highly readable book. It deserves to be widely read and debated." - The Christian Science Monitor "Pillsbury''s scholarship is buttressed by an eye-popping amount of declassified material... Pillsbury''s key claim [is] that China... is methodically undertaking a ''hundred-year marathon'' strategy to displace the United States as the global hegemon... The time is ripe to examine the trajectory of American relations with the world''s second-largest economy [and] the marathon is hardly over." - The Weekly Standard "Following the Communist victory in the Chinese civil war, Americans agonized over ''Who lost China?'' If we do not recognize the Chinese party-state for the predatory animal that it is, in 20 years the question we will be asking ourselves is ''Who lost the world?'' The answer will be, ''We did.''" - The Washington Times "A presentation of China''s hidden agenda grounded in the author''s longtime work at the U.S. Defense Department... Fodder for concerned thought." - Kirkus Reviews "This is without question the most important book written about Chinese strategy and foreign policy in years. Michael Pillsbury has spent more than four decades for the Pentagon and the CIA talking to and learning from a core of Chinese ''hard-liners'' who may be the driving force behind Chinese foreign policy today under Xi Jinping. Based on meticulous scholarship and written in lively, engaging prose, this book offers a sobering corrective to what has long been the dominant, soothing narrative of Sino- American cooperation." - Robert Kagan, author of The World America Made and Of Paradise and Power "A provocative exploration of the historical sources of China''s grand strategy to become #1." - Graham Allison, Director of Harvard Kennedy School''s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs"Michael Pillsbury has been meeting with, talking to, and studying the ''hawks'' in China''s military and intelligence apparatus for more than four decades, since back when America and China were cooperating against the Soviet Union. In this fascinating, provocative new book, he lays out the hawks'' views about the United States and their long-term strategies for overcoming American power by the middle of this century. In the process, the book challenges the wrong-headed assumptions in Washingtonabout a gradually reforming China. Given the direction China has been taking in the past few years, Pillsbury''s book takes on immediate relevance." - James Mann, author of About Face: A History of America''s Curious Relationship with China , The China Fantasy , and Beijing Jeep " The Hundred-Year Marathon is based on work that Michael Pillsbury did for the CIA that landed him the Director''s Exceptional Performance Award.

J. PEMPEL March 2016 Our Mission The National Committee on American Foreign Policy (NCAFP) was founded in 1974 by Professor Hans J. Morgenthau and others. It is a nonprofit policy organization dedicated to the resolution of conflicts that threaten U.S. interests. Toward that end, the NCAFP identifies, articulates, and helps advance American foreign policy interests from a nonpartisan perspective within the framework of political realism. American foreign policy interests include: • Preserving and strengthening national security; •Supporting the values and the practice of political, religious, and cultural pluralism; • Advancing human rights; • Addressing non-traditional security challenges such as terrorism, cyber security and climate change; • Curbing the proliferation of nuclear and other unconventional weapons; and • Promoting an open and global economy. The NCAFP fulfills its mission through Track I½ and Track II diplomacy. These closed-door and off-the-record conferences provide opportunities for senior U.S. and foreign officials, subject experts, and scholars to engage in discussions designed to defuse conflict, build confidence, and resolve problems. Believing that an informed public is vital to a democratic society, the National Committee offers educational programs and issues a variety of publications that address security challenges facing the United States. Critical assistance for this volume was provided by Ms. Rorry Daniels, Associate Project Director of the NCAFP’s Forum on Asia-Pacific Security (FAPS); Ms. Juliet Lee, Project Assistant, FAPS; and Mr.

  • MR. MICHAEL PILLSBURY: Peter, with Your Permission I’D Like to Talk a Bit About the American Policy Issues Involving Your Breakfast Series
    MR. MICHAEL PILLSBURY: Peter, with your permission I’d like to talk a bit about the American policy issues involving your breakfast series. And also tell everybody here to be sure to read a book called “The Mind of Empire,” whose author is here among us. He is a Harvard- Yale-Oxford Rhodes scholar. The book is quite insightful on China’s world view over the last two or three thousand years. He’s actually sitting right here. His name is Chris Ford. It’s a real treat, this book called “Mind of Empire.” I don’t think it has been translated yet into Chinese, which is a good thing, because if it is he will be denied a visa to visit China, unless he undergoes re-education and apologizes. (Laughter). I was a Senate staffer for about 10 years or more. I wanted to ask, how many staffers are here? Good, quite a few. My own view of how the Chinese see us is that it’s quite a sophisticated view. They are not naïve. They don’t misperceive. They have been caught on numerous occasions committing espionage, in some cases at very high levels, in our country. Anybody who meets with Chinese experts on America comes away impressed with their knowledge. Their view, and I think it’s correct, is that there are two basic strategies towards China in Washington. The first strategy is the executive branch since 1972. They see this largely as continuous. The executive branch has conducted a policy that has no real easy label.

  • Expertise, Domestic Politics, and US China Strategy Under Trump
    1 The End of Engagement: Expertise, Domestic Politics, and U.S. China Strategy under Trump What explains the dramatic shift in U.S. strategy toward the People’s Republic of China (PRC), which began in approximately 2016?1 The long-standing strategy of “Engagement,” which aimed to incorporate a rising China into the Western-led international order, has given way to a tough but as-yet-unnamed approach variously termed “competition,” “decoupling,” and for some, “containment” amidst a new “Cold War.”2 The 2015 National Security Strategy (NSS 2015) welcomed “the rise of a stable, peaceful, and prosperous China.” Celebrating “unprecedented” cooperation on issues like climate change, it looked forward to “a constructive relationship…that delivers benefits for our two peoples and promotes security and prosperity in Asia and around the world.”3 Just two years later, however, NSS 2017 labelled China a “revisionist power” that seeks “to shape a world antithetical to U.S. values and interests,” including displacing the U.S. from the Indo-Pacific.4 This shift mirrored a rhetorical change on China emanating from the administration of President Donald Trump, its chief policy manifestation the trade war launched in January 2018.5 1 For stylistic purposes, and following common usage, I frequently refer to the PRC using the shorthand “China.” 2 See, for example, Michael Nacht, Sarah Laderman, and Lisa Beeston, “Strategic Competition in U.S.-China Relations,” Livermore Paper on Global Security No. 5, October 2018; Satoru Mori, “U.S.-China: A New Consensus for Strategic Competition in Washington,” The Diplomat, 30 January 2019; Edward Luce, “The New Era of US-China Decoupling,” The Financial Times 20 December 2018; Michael Mandelbaum, “The New Containment: Handling Russia, China, and Iran,” Foreign Affairs, March/April 2019; Odd Arne Westad, “The Sources of Chinese Conduct: Are Washington and Beijing Fighting a New Cold War?” Foreign Affairs, Vol.

  • United States, China and World Order
    CONTRASTING VISIONS: UNITED STATES, CHINA AND WORLD ORDER Remarks presented before the U.S.-China Security Review Commission Session on U.S.-China Relationship and Strategic Perceptions August 3, 2001 Dr. Bates Gill Senior Fellow in Foreign Policy Studies Director, Center for Northeast Asian Policy Studies The Brookings Institution, Washington, D.C. I. Introduction Allow me to begin by thanking the co-chairmen of today’s session for the opportunity to present my thoughts again before the U.S.-China Security Review Commission. I laud the Commission’s efforts to better understand the complex divergence and convergence in strategic perceptions which characterizes and complicates the U.S.-China security relationship. In an effort to respond to the eight sets of questions you asked me to consider, my remarks this afternoon will be divided three parts, and will draw from the lengthier written testimony I have submitted for the record. The three areas of focus for the presentation today will be: · An overview of the fundamental sources which shape the differences in strategic perceptions and worldview between the United States and China. · An analysis of how these fundamental views combine with contemporary developments to shape China’s current strategic perceptions of the United States. · An assessment of the principal ways these differences in strategic perceptions will play out in U.S.-China security relations. II. Fundamentally different perceptions A nuanced and sensible understanding of the differences in U.S. and Chinese strategic perceptions must quickly move beyond the headline-grabbing analyses that so often follow in the wake of crises between our two countries, such as the May 1999 bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade, and the mid-air collision of the U.S.

    The London School of Economics and Political Science Congress, China and the Cold War: Domestic Politics and Sino-American Rapprochement and Normalisation, 1969- 1980 Paul Coyer A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, May 2013 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 99,961 words. 2 Abstract The aim of this thesis is to examine the impact of the US Congress on the process of Sino-American rapprochement and diplomatic normalisation during the period 1969-1980. Thus far, research on Sino-American rapprochement and normalisation has focused on the role played by the Executive Branch, ignoring the role played by Congress. This study aims to place Executive Branch actions with regard to China policy in the context of domestic political trends and Congressional actions and attitudes, and locates the process of Sino-American rapprochement and normalisation in the broader context of shifting domestic attitudes toward the Cold War.

  • Reading China Wrong
    READING CHINA WRONG Michael Pillsbury any observers have harshly criticized President Obama’s China policy for being at best overly optimistic and at worst tragically naïve. In 2012, it is Mcommon to see strategic mistrust between the U.S. and China. The cover of the September 2012 issue of Foreign Affairs thus features an article on how China sees the United States as hostile and aggressive. A senior American lawmaker has noted that China’s rhetoric toward Obama has grown angry, with the official Peo- ple’s Daily accusing the United States of “fanning the flames and provoking divi- sion, deliberately creating antagonism with China, “ and that newspaper’s overseas edition going so far as to say that it was time for the United States to “shut up.”1 Is it fair to judge Obama’s China policy to be so naïve, at least until the “pivot” began in 2012? Cautious historians may claim that no one can fairly judge the successes and fail- ures of the Obama administration’s policy toward China for at least 30 years hence, when the relevant classified documents will be publicly released in the State Depart- ment Historian’s book series called Foreign Relations of the United States. That series lags far behind the times, and even the volume covering the controversial years of Jimmy Carter has not yet been released. However, one can still reach a tentative judg- ment based on new three books, published in 2012, which agree in their criticisms of failure of Obama’s early China policies. The core issue seems to be the erroneous deci- sion to try and “build trust” with China’s leaders by pandering to their sensitivities with regard to Taiwan, Tibet and other issues.
