History / Biographical Note

Biographical / Historical

Arthur Doak Barnett (1921-1999) was born in Shanghai, the fourth child of Eugene Epperson and Bertha Smith Barnett. His father worked in China for the Young Men's Christian Association until 1936 when the family returned to the United States. Barnett graduated from Yale University summa cum laude with undergraduate and master's degrees in international relations. He served in the U.S. Marine Corp in the Pacific during World War II.

In 1947 Barnett returned to China as a fellow of the Institute of Current World Affairs and a correspondent for the Chicago Daily News. He traveled throughout China, covering the civil war, the occupation of Peking (Beijing) in 1949, and the establishment of the People's Republic of China. After the revolution he became a public affairs officer for the American Consulate General in Hong Kong. A 1955 Daily News clipping described him as "the last American correspondent to leave China after the Reds took over.".

Returning to the United States in 1959, Barnett joined the Ford Foundation where he secured funds for research projects on China despite the political climate of McCarthyism. He joined the Columbia University faculty in 1961 as Professor of Public Law and Government and taught there for eight years. His students included Kenneth Lieberthal, an advisor on China to the Clinton Administration, and Michel Oksenberg, who participated in the Carter Administration's establishment of diplomatic relations with China.

In 1966 Barnett was principal witness for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee review of U.S. China policy. Consistently advocating a non-confrontational approach, he advised Presidents Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard M. Nixon to reach out to China, coining the phrase ''containment without isolation." President Ronald Reagan adopted Barnett's position against the sale of jet fighters to Taiwan in early 1980s, and the Bush and Clinton Administrations were guided by his views on the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.

Barnett was instrumental in establishing several organizations on China, including the Joint Committee on Contemporary China, the Committee on Scholarly Communications with the People's Republic of China, and the National Committee on US-China Relations.

He returned to China many times throughout his life to conduct research that formed the basis for his many published works and as a member of delegations and exchanges he helped to organize. He told an interviewer his most interesting years were spent traveling to every province in China, often on horseback, in the 1940s as a half-time reporter for the Daily News.

"We in the West, and particularly in the United States, keep going through cycles, or swings of the pendulum, from unrealistic euphoria about China to a feeling of disillusionment because it doesn't live up to our unrealistic expectations. " (Brookings, 22).

A. Doak Barnett died at age 77 in Washington, D.C.

Subseries II.3: National Committee on US-China Relations, 1965-1995

National Committee on US-China Relations traces Barnett's role in the Committee's establishment, his tenure as Board Chairman in 1968, and active participation through retirement. Included are proposal drafts for a National Committee on US-China Policy, a draft prospectus using the current organization name, correspondence among founding members, a certificate of incorporation, and a press release announcing the committee's formation. Correspondence with elected and appointed government officials document the Committee's impact on US policy in Asia during the Vietnam War while maintaining its identity as a "catalyst and service organization." There are materials from a 1969 convocation, "United States and China: the Next Decade," along with position papers on topics such as Sino-American cultural exchanges. Also here are memos and other items from the Chinese Table Tennis Team's US visit in 1972, known as "ping pong diplomacy." Board of Directors Meeting records include background papers.

Series IV: Writings and Master files, 1939-1997

Writings and Master Files contains news dispatches, essays, opinion pieces, journal articles, books, and other works written by Barnett from his undergraduate days at Yale and reporting for the Chicago Daily News through retirement. He wrote the introduction to the once ubiquitous red paperback, Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung, published in 1967.

Subseries IV.1: "Past Publications,", 1939-1995

"Past Publications" (Barnett's words) contains news clippings and teletype reports filed by Barnett from China beginning in 1947 and chronicling the Communist siege of Peking. Also here is a carbon copy of a December 1948 letter written by Barnett and New York Herald Tribune reporter A.T. Steele to Mao Zedong requesting an interview with a list of questions about the Nanking Government, the Kuomintang Revolutionary Committee, and future Communist relations with the outside world. This subseries contains reports, some with maps, sent by Barnett from throughout Asia as an American Universities Field Staff correspondent for the Institute of Current World Affairs during the 1940s and 1950s. Also here are opinion pieces and interviews on Nixon's 1972 trip to China and later US China policy as well as correspondence, notes, drafts, and final versions of speeches and published articles. Handwritten speech and lecture notes from 1950 through 1997 discuss topics such as US-China relations, foreign policy decisions, political and economic trends in China, and problems of security and stability in Asia. Press references folders contain news clippings of interviews of Barnett and articles in which he is quoted or referenced. Of special note are press reactions to Barnett's testimony on US-China relations at 1966 Senate Foreign Relations Committee Hearings.
