U.S-Sino Strategic Competition: Policy shifts and conflicts from trump to Biden


Author(s): William FY Chen

Abstract: This paper uses comparative analysis and case study methods to explore the evolution of U.S.-Sino strategic competition during the presidencies of Trump and Biden, based on historical documents, government reports, academic literature and media reports. Using offensive realism, it examines the structural dynamics in U.S.-Sino relations, focusing on the continuity and transformation of the two presidents' strategies toward China. Trump first proposed the concept of "strategic competition" and adopted a confrontational strategy to weaken China's rise through means such as trade wars and technological blockades. Biden continues this framework, but emphasized the use of international cooperation and ideology in dealing with China's challenges. The study finds that although both administrations view China as a "strategic competitor", their policies and strategies are different, reflecting different perceptions of international order and power. The study also highlights that U.S.-Sino strategic competition plays a vital role in reshaping the global power structure.
