| Summary/Abstract |
This is a review of the main stages of rapprochement and improvement of relations between China and the U.S. after a long period of alienation and enmity. An attempt has been made to analyze the correlation of pragmatic and ideological motivations in the process of this rapprochement, which culminated in 1979 in the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States of America and the People's Republic of China. The U.S.-Chinese differences at the present stage are characterized and future development prospects are briefly analyzed.
