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.

There are documents from the Government Research Corporation's China Advisory Group, which later became the China Group.

Correspondence, agendas, member lists, and other materials from those meetings are in this subseries. Also here are materials on the origins and activities of the Social Science Research Council's Joint Committee on Contemporary China.
