Abstract
The USA and China have had a complex relationship since
the 1949 establishment of the People's Republic of China.
This relationship has gone from hostility to guarded
friendliness to increased tension at the beginning of the new
millennium. Recent years have seen the emergence of
literature stressing China's potential emergence as a
national security threat to the USA. This article will look at
books, government documents, and Internet resources
examining the current and possible future national security
relationship between these two countries from 1995/1996 to
the present. This literature presents US and international
perspectives representing a variety of viewpoints on a
subject that may have a major impact on international
relations during the twenty-first century.

This analysis presents an Australian perspective
on the antagonism between China and Taiwan,
US interests in Taiwan, and possible implications
this issue may have for Australia. A particular
focus of this paper is on what the author sees as
how China and Taiwan define the phrase ``One
China'' in descriptions of their relationship.
It opens with a historical overview of the
relationship between Taiwan and China since
the 1949 establishment of the PRC. It proceeds
to cover the role China played during its 19951996 missile crisis with Taiwan, military,
diplomatic, and economic constraints on
possible Chinese military action against
Taiwan, the significance of Chen Shui-bian's
2000 election as Taiwan's president, common
Chinese-Taiwanese interests, whether war is
possible between these two countries, and
possible Australian diplomatic influence in
building greater trust and confidence between
China and Taiwan.
