• W210170611 abstract "ABSTRACT The transformation currently underway in China reflects the ongoing working out of two large historical processes--the disposition of the post-1912 Manchu Empire and the creation of a satisfactory social, political, and economic order to govern what emerges. Because these processes, in progress for many decades, have bequeathed a legacy of violence and destruction, the restoration of stable and satisfactory order will take time. The United States should seek to exercise a constructive influence by promoting social, economic, political, and cultural ideas, which propel China toward greater cosmopolitanism and sophistication. Keywords: China; Taiwan; United States ********** REMARKS Early in his tenure as President Kennedy's Secretary of State, in the midst of one of those periodic flare-ups of what was then known as the Berlin Problem, Dean Rusk was asked whether he wanted to be remembered as the Secretary of State who had solved the Berlin Problem once-and-for-all. No, Rusk, said, his ambition was far more modest: to be remembered as but another in the long line of Secretaries of State who had inherited the Berlin Problem from his predecessor and passed it on to his successor. By 1961, Mr. Rusk had learned something about intractable problems from his prior service. He had the misfortune to be Assistant Secretary of State for Far Eastern Affairs at the time of the establishment of the Communist regime in China. And worse misfortunes were to await him, for he served during the Vietnam War, a problem which he was able to bequeath to his successors, just as Messrs. Byrnes, Stetinius, Marshall, Acheson, Dulles, and Herter had passed on Berlin to him. The Berlin Problem, at long last, is no longer with us. But so hardy are the remaining perennials of international affairs we barely notice. The late-1940s, it seems, was quite a seedtime for such problems that are still with us: Kashmir, Palestine, Korea, Yugoslavia, Indonesia, Cambodia, and our very own Taiwan. And we can go back even further, for are not these problems in one-way or another the detritus of World War I, the remains of empires long gone: the Ottomans, the Hapsburgs, the Hohenzollerns, the Romanovs and the Aisin Gioro, the Manchu imperial clan, whose empire ended in 1912? Back then, would anyone have imagined that some Americans would be gathered in St. Louis, Missouri, to ponder what to do with that estate? What will become of it? To borrow Chou En-lai's assessment of the effects of French Revolution, it's too soon to tell. After all, among the U.S., China, and Taiwan, it is only the United States about whose shape and government we can speak of with some reasonable assurance. We have, today, a fair idea of what the United States has come to look like, though it is a fairly recent creation, so far as history goes. Hawaii became a state in 1959, a mere 2,000 miles off the American mainland. Yet it became part of the U.S. because it very much wanted to be. Today, though by heritage, it is Polynesian and Japanese and Chinese, it feels quite at home inside the Union. On the other hand, there is Puerto Rico, European-Christian, yet more than a little confused about its connection to the mainland. So it is some kind of something; should we call it a self-governing autonomous region, even though it fields its own Olympic team? Most countries are like that. They are very recent creations, their borders moving around, and different sorts of people sometimes inside, sometimes outside. In the twentieth century, Germany was all over the map; for many other European peoples, changes of sovereignty were so routine as sometimes to be noticed only in the official names of places in the postal gazetteer. The South Asian subcontinent is still trying to work this out, as is most of Africa for that matter. Remember: between 1607 and 1776, we Americans could not get to a satisfactory place for ourselves inside the British Empire, so we fought against it for eight years. …" @default.
