foreign policy, and other aspects. In this book, Jie Li examines the evolution of Chinese intellectual perceptions of the
Soviet Union in the 1980s and 1990s, before and after the collapse.
Relying on a larger body of updated Chinese sources, Li re-evaluates many key issues in post-Mao Chinese Sovietology,
arguing that the Chinese views on the Soviet Union had been influenced and shaped by the ups-and-downs of
Sino-Soviet (and later Sino-Russian) relations, China’s domestic political climate, and the political developments in
Moscow. By researching the country of the Soviet Union, Chinese Soviet-watchers did not focus on the USSR alone, but
mostly attempted to confirm and legitimize the Chinese state policies of reform and open door in both decades. By
examining the Soviet past, Chinese scholars not only demonstrated concern for the survival of the CCP regime, but also
attempted to envision the future direction and position of China in the post-communist world.
