Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of U.S.-China relations in the American expert community. First, the author briefly reviews the main think tanks for Chinese research, and then discusses three topics for discussion in the American expert community regarding bilateral relations: the policy of engagement with China, support for Taiwan and the concept of air-maritime operations and its criticism. The author concludes that the opinions of experts regarding China are largely based on their ideological preferences, the evolution of the Chinese state system and the balance of power between the PRC and the United States.
