Abstract

Since the end of the cold war, one of the most remarkable fundamental changes in the world’s political and economic structure has been the rapid rise of China and its accompanying and emerging trend of “power transfer between China and the United States”. The fundamental reason why the gap of comprehensive national strength between China and the United States has narrowed rapidly over the past two decades is the difference in the efficiency of domestic reform between the two countries, which is rooted in the evolution of mainstream political thoughts and social structure in the Post-Cold War era. Therefore, this paper tries to analyze and compare the above two variables and their impacts, focusing on the reasons for the different destinies of China and the United States’ domestic reforms in the Post-Cold War era. And taking them as a new perspective to analyze the future strategic situation of China and the United States and the evolution of the international pattern.
