Our China research and press activities focus on several immediate goals:
1. Tracking Chinese military developments of concern to the United States and its democratic allies in Asia, and raising the awareness of Americans and Asians, and their leaders, about those developments;
2. Studying and encouraging the growth of Chinese institutions - the open society - with a particular emphasis on those that are amenable to U.S. influence, through either official or unofficial channels;
3. Reviewing U.S. policies towards China, including direct and indirect subsidies, U.S. public diplomacy efforts such as Radio Free Asia, and others - to make sure these policies are making the maximum contribution they can to U.S. interests and, in the long run, Chinese freedom.
| In a joint statement issued by the Committee for the Common Defense, a research program of the Alexis de Tocqueville Institution, former defense secretaries Casper Weinberger and William Perry, former Senate and Pentagon aide Richard Perle, and former Senator Sam Nunn suggested several policy actions in light of a recent congressional report on Chinese activities in the U.S., and on Chinese actions around the world. |
