摘要

This chapter examines Jiang Zemin’s foreign policy, focusing on China’s entry into the WTO and its management of bilateral relations with the United States. While accession to the WTO represented China’s unprecedented step toward full integration into the global economic order, the Taiwan crisis revealed the persistent imperatives of security and ideology in China’s foreign affairs. In this context, the Chinese political leadership adopted a pragmatic approach to the handling of US-China relations over the Taiwan Issue, and sought engagement with the United States in counter-terrorism in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks. Overall, Jiang’s diplomatic pragmatism allowed China to remain strategically focused on economic development despite tensions with the United States over sensitive security and ideological issues.
