The Cairo Conference (November 22-26, 1943) marked an important turning point in Sino-American relations during World War II. Chiang K'ai-shek and Franklin D. Roosevelt met face-to-face for the first time at Cairo, taking each other's measure and trying to reconcile critical differences of opinion which strained Sino-American relations. Before their meeting in Cairo, both Chiang and Roosevelt relied on surrogates to conduct Sino-American relations, preferring to bypass normal diplomatic channels in favor of what might be called private diplomacy. Such private diplomatic efforts complicated an already difficult situation by pitting the professional diplomatic and military establishments in both China and the United States against the personal favorites of the President and the Generalissimo. At best, the results of this kind of diplomacy were mixed as both Chiang and Roosevelt were to learn at Cairo.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The Cairo Conference (November 22-26, 1943) marked an important turning point in Sino-American relations during World War II. Chiang K'ai-shek and Franklin D.

520 $a This dissertation will trace the conduct of Sino-American relations from 1941-1943 by surrogates of the President and the Generalissimo, culminating in the Cairo Conference. In trying to reconstruct events prior to and at the Cairo Conference, I will be relying on the diaries, memoirs, official papers, and recently opened archival collections of the principal players in the game of Sino-American diplomacy, including T. V. Soong, Wellington Koo, Hollington Tong, H. H. Kung, Victor Hu, and Madame Chiang K'ai-shek on the Chinese side and Lauchlin Currie, Harry Hopkins, Joseph Stilwell, Elliot Roosevelt, George C. Marshall, and Franklin D. Roosevelt on the American side.
520 $a The story of events in the CBI theater and wartime summitry has been told by both diplomatic and military historians. What is unique about this dissertation is the effort to reconstruct the hitherto untold story of the private diplomacy conducted by Chiang, Roosevelt, and their surrogates. This story is not only a fascinating one, but it may well alter some of the generally accepted views of wartime and post-war Sino-American relations.
