These relations were characterized by some "ups" but many more "downs," e.g. when, in the early 1960s, the Soviet Union ordered its vassal state in East Berlin to begin treating its former socialist comrade and brother-in-arms as an adversary and indeed enemy. Drawing on a wealth of archival material, especially from the archive of the GDRs ruling party, this book examines selected issues and elements of East German and Chinese domestic and foreign policy. In order to better grasp the nature and the historical context of the bilateral relationship, it offers detailed insights into the following aspects: 1. the bilateral "honeymoon period" from 1949 to the late 1950s, which was accompanied by the two parties supporting and applauding each others oppressive domestic and ill-fated economic policies, including Maos Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution; 2. relations during the 1960s, when the "Sino-Soviet Split" defined the quality and level of bilateral animosities; 3. the 1970s, when Beijing replaced socialist comradeship with East Berlin with trade and aid from the US and West Germany; and 4. the resumption of Sino-East German relations in the 1980s and the subsequent period up to the Tiananmen Square protests and the collapse of the GDR in 1989. The book will appeal to historians, political scientists and scholars of international relations, as well as policymakers, diplomats, and others with an interest in this previously under-researched area 001443278 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 29, 2021). 001443278 651_0 $$aChina$$xForeign relations$$zGermany (East) 001443278 651_0 $$aGermany (East)$$xForeign relations$$zChina. 001443278 651_6 $$aChine$$xRelations extérieures$$zAllemagne (Est) 001443278 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001443278 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBerkofsky, Axel.$$tChina-GDR relations from 1949-1989.$$dCham : Springer, [2022]$$z3030793362$$z9783030793364$$w(OCoLC)1252412920 001443278 830_0 $$aContributions to international relations. 001443278 852__ $$bebk 001443278 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-79337-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001443278 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1443278$$pGLOBAL_SET 001443278 980__ $$aBIB 001443278 980__ $$aEBOOK 001443278 982__ $$aEbook 001443278 983__ $$aOnline 001443278 994__ $$a92$$bISE
