| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research program re-examines the Sino-Soviet alliance in its early years (1950-54) by separating it into three layers. In the first layer, the two states established the formal collective defense system in which the Soviet military role in Asian cold war frontiers was fairly limited. In the second layer, the Sino-Soviet burden-sharing system eventually failed to be formally institutionalized due to some difficulties including the incapability of Beijing to lead Asian revolutionary movements. These two layers created the third layer where the North-South relationship began to appear in the Sino-Soviet alliance. The vital Chinese strategy of securing a sovereign-state-system in a third world was bound to be incompatible with Soviet efforts to seek rapprochement with the Western countries. The discord took place in the Taiwan issue. The three layers of analysis indicate that the Sino-Soviet alliance system was more loosely arranged than the American-led hub-and-spoke allies.
