Sino-Soviet Relations From 1945-1989 : 5 pages in
length.
Nineteen eighty-nine was a most significant year for
Sino-Soviet relations. The Chinese and the Russians had
endured several decades of discord that ultimately
culminated in the restoration of party-to-party relations,
bringing together the two communist parties. The events
that initially caused the rift between the two powers served
to create considerable strain within existing Sino-Soviet
relations; these concerns were not so much because of
Russian initiatives or concessions but more because
Chinese developments. The writer discusses the events
affecting Sino-Soviet relations between 1945 and 1989.

Opium Wars : A 6 page paper discussing the causes
and results of the two Opium Wars (1839-1842 and
1856-1858) between China and Britain. In 300 years of
trade with China, Britain had developed a thirst for Chinas
tea as well as appetites for Chinese silk and porcelain, but
pre-industrial China found very little to desire from
Britains offerings. To ease the resulting tremendous trade
deficit, Britain began growing opium in its colony India
and insisted that China allow it to enter their country for
use by their people. China declined the affront to their
national sovereignty, lost Hong Kong to Britain, and later
lost all right to restrict the opium trade within their borders.

Todays China in Light of the Past : A 5 page
paper
discussing modern China with reference to long-standing
beliefs and practices. As a culture both ancient and so new
as to be positively modern, China remains a study in
contrasts. Guangdong International Trust & Investment
Corporation (GITIC) was forced by the government to go
bankrupt when it was not destitute, but the government was
alarmed over what it perceived to be the same types of
patterns that preceded the currency and banking crisis in
Japan and determined to force the GITIC to cease making
what it believed were loans of questionable value. China
remains an official big emerging market, but it is yet
unclear just what form of government and economic
structure will grow from the current chaos. Bibliography
