Review of America Policy toward Tibet in the 20th Century

American policy toward Tibet is an important factor in Sino-American relationts. The early Amercan Tibetan policy was based on the theory of " sovereighty over Tibet" by British imperialism. During the 20th century, American policy toward Chinese Tibetan issue has experienced three stages,from following the sovereignty theory to emphasizing "Tibet is a part of China",and then to supporting Tibetan rebellious and splittist forces in flight to split China,concocting "Tibetan national self-determination"theory and promoting the internationalization of Tibetan issue. In summary, American Tibetan policy is pragmatic and duel-standards, and the "Tibetan issue"is used as a means to contain and split China when the United States is in need of it.
