Previous owner's mailing label on the fep. A historical survey of United States foreign policy toward China, Japan, and other Far Eastern countries from the days of the "Open Door" to the Vietnam War. Richard Walton (May 24, 1928 - December 27, 2012) was an American writer, teacher, and politician. He was the vice-presidential nominee in 1984 of the short-lived Citizens Party; Sonia Johnson was the party's presidential nominee that year. As a print journalist, he worked for The Providence Journal (1954-1955) and then for the New York World-Telegram and The New York Sun (1955-1959). He then returned to radio for the Voice of America (VOA), first in Washington, D.C., as producer-host of Report to Africa (1959-1962) and then in New York City as principal United Nations correspondent (1962-1967). In 1960, he traveled extensively in Africa making a series of documentaries on the independence movement, interviewing many of the post-colonial leaders including Patrice Lumumba. In 1967 he left VOA to write The Remnants of Power: The Tragic Last Years of Adlai Stevenson (1968). Eleven other books followed, notably America and the Cold War (1969), The United States and Latin America (1971), Cold War and Counterrevolution: The Foreign Policy of John F. Kennedy (1972),The United States and the Far East (1974), and The Power of Oil (1979). He has contributed articles to numerous publications, including The New York Times, The Washington Post, The New Republic, and Saturday Review. Derived from a Kirkus review: Walton makes a vast subject manageable by tracing the broad outlines of American politics in Asia and making a few telling points along the way about the differing perceptions of those policies at home and abroad. American misunderstanding of Asia is followed as far back as the Open Door, long touted as an act of altruistic statesmanship but actually a unilateral declaration aimed at excluding other European nations. Of course, American missionaries also did more to make China popular here than themselves welcome in China. Walton recaps the debate over the annexation of the Philippines. He discusses our opposition to Japanese expansion which, along with California's laws against Japanese-Americans, was interpreted by the Japanese themselves as hostile and discriminatory. And he recalls the pro-American role played by the United Nations during the Korean intervention. This highly readable mix of factual summary and thoughtful interpretation will bring to readers a more sophisticated view of foreign policy.
