Researched over the course of nearly two years, Rein In at the Brink of the Precipice draws extensively on the U.S.-PRC negotiating record and numerous interviews with key former U.S. officials to give a textured sense of U.S. Taiwan policyand its relation to overall Sino-American relationsfrom the Nixon Administration through the present. It argues that U.S. leaders have on occasion been either inattentive toor unaware ofthe commitments undertaken with the Peoples Republic of China regarding Taiwan and, because of this, have unwittingly generated crisesand could do so again.

This book documents the history of U.S.-Republic of China relations over the past forty years, with the emphasis on the decade from 1979, under the Taiwan Relations Act (TRA). Includes all the important documents concerning American relations with Taiwan, together with illustrative selections of less important documents since the establishment in 1949 of the Republic of China on the island of Taiwan. The major portion of the documents relate to the past decade following the passage by the U.S. Congress of the TRA. This law, which dictates close U.S. relations with a non-recognized nation, offers for examination a unique experiment in American diplomatic history.

This book shows that Taiwan, unlike other countries, avoided serious economic disruption and social conflict, and arrived at its goal of multi-party competition with little blood shed. Nonetheless, this survey reveals that for those who imagine democracy to be the panacea for every social, economic and political ill, Taiwan's continuing struggles against corruption, isolation and division offer a cautionary lesson. This book is an ideal, one-stop resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students of political science, particuarly those interested in the international politics of China, and the Asia-Pacific.
