Trade paperback. viii, 247 p. Tables. Notes. U.S. -Third World Policy Perspectives, No. 14., Overseas Development Council. Three of the largest & strategically important underdeveloped nations in the World--the USSR, India, & China--are simultaneously in the throes of historic changes. Economic reform in the Giants clearly has profound consequences for their own political systems--& for the lives of their 2.2 billion people. These reforms are also prompting dramatic changes in the international political & economic order. In this fourteenth volume of ODC's U.S. -Third World Policy series, the authors address such issues as the consequences of this new outward-orientation for international trade, the response of U.S. policy to these developments, & the role of international economic institutions in helping to integrate the Giants into the world economy. The authors argue that the uncertainties of the new international setting "underscore the need for clear-headed realism but should not stand in the way of bold action to help steer history in forward direction. " Their policy recommendations suggest ways to transform past threats into new opportunities. Very good. No dust jacket as issued. Cover has minor wear and soiling.

ISBN: 0817972323 "The sharp deterioration of United States-China relations over the past 18 months has raised a series of new challenges for Chinese scientific development. What started out as trade friction has evolved into a complex conflict, one in which Chinese strategies for technological development figure prominently. US concerns over Chinese scientific and technological progress, seen by policy-makers across the political spectrum as increasingly threatening, have led to a notable tightening of US export controls and foreign investment regulations, stricter controls over visas for Chinese scientists and engineers, and more active investigations into the behavior of ethnic Chinese scientists working in US universities and companies. The once flourishing bilateral relationships in science and technologyâ"in universities, industry, and governmentâ"are now clouded by growing concerns in the United States and China over national security and the protection of intellectual property."

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This report was prepared for the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission by Dr. Richard P. Suttmeier, Professor of Political Science, Emeritus, University of Oregon. U.S.-China bilateral S&T cooperation has facilitated a complex government-to-government relationship consisting of roughly 30 agency-to-agency protocols and a number of sub-agreements in fields including nuclear safety, agriculture, energy, and environmental protection. The report details how China's engagement with the U.S. on S&T has played a major role in the development of Chinese technology, wealth, and power. In addition to examining a range of bilateral projects and cross-agency cooperative efforts, Dr. Suttmeier's report describes the differing objectives driving scientific cooperation in the United States and China. China uses S&T engagement as a component of a national strategy to build scientific capabilities. This has enabled the rapid development of China's S&T capabilities and threatens the United States' status as the world's leading scientific power. This report also identifies some national security challenges, including the transfer of sensitive technology through espionage and other means that have emerged in the context of bilateral S&T cooperation.
