Description

During the period 1949 to 1979, communist China was officially pursuing a policy of self-sufficiency, and the United States and its allies were officially implementing a trade embargo against communist China.

However, this book, based on extensive original research, demonstrates that China was highly dependent on Western/Japanese grain imports.

The text shows that groups lobbying on behalf of Western/Japanese grain producers and related industries had successfully found ways of by-passing the embargo.

This book charts the complicated picture of how economic relations between China, the West and Japan developed in these years.
