This accord--which is generally referred to as the LT Trade Agreement, an acronym of the co-signers--not only established semi-official economic relations between China and Japan, but also paved the way for their diplomatic normalization in 1972. The method of research is an in-depth analysis of primary sources, such as autobiographies and memoirs, and secondary sources, including scholarly and commercially-published books, as well as correspondence and interviews. The audience includes college students and scholars of Asian studies, history, international studies, and political science, as well as the general public who are interested in Asian history, political leaders, and world politics Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Print version record SUBJECT Liao, Chengzhi, 1908-1983. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82252781 Takasaki, Tatsunosuke, 1885-1964. http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr2002023564 Liao, Chengzhi, 1908-1983. fast (OCoLC)fst00106678 Takasaki, Tatsunosuke, 1885-1964. fast (OCoLC)fst01917302 Subject Statesmen -- China -- Biography Statesmen -- Japan -- Biography Diplomacy -- c 1945 to c 2000 (Post-war period) -- East Asia, Far East.
