| dc.description.abstract | The usefulness of public opinion studies in historical analysis has been amply demonstrated by many recent and contemporary historians. My purpose in this thesis is not to defend the concept but to contribute in a small way to the growing store of literature dealing with public attitudes towards historical events. I have chosen to deal with the specific subject of American attitudes towards China in the Second World War because of a particular interest in China during that period. It was during the war that the American people began to accept the blame for China's plight. The United States had not observed its promise to uphold Chinese territorial and administrative integrity; it was not sending enough military supplies to Chinese soldiers; and, near the end of the Second World War, Americans began to feel responsible for their failure to solve the civil dispute between the Nationalists and the Communists. This sense of exaggerated responsibility has persisted, retarding a Sino-American settlement that would recognize the fact of Chinese Communism, while seeking to prevent further violation of Nationalist territorial boundaries. | en_US |
