Inhaltsangabe

Part I. Competing Discourses, 1961-8: 1. 'Red menance' to 'revolutionary
rival': re-casting the Chinese communist threat; 2. 'Troubled modernizer'
but 'resurgent power': revisionist images of the PRC and arguments for a
new China policy; 3. The revisionist legacy: the discourse of
reconciliation with China by 1968; Part II. Discursive Transitions,
1969-71: 4. Nixon's public China policy discourse in context; 5. Debating
the rapprochement: 'resurgent revolutionary power' vs. 'threatened realist
power'; Part III. Discourses of Rapprochement in Practice, 1971-4: 6.
'Principled realist power': laying the discursive foundations of a new
relationship, July 1971 to February 1972; 7. Principles in practice: policy
implications of the decision for rapprochement; 8. 'Selling' the
relationship: the Nixon Administration's justification of the New China
policy; 9. 'Tacit ally' June 1972 to 1974: consolidating or saving the
US-China rapprochement.
