	Old China Trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Old China Trade was the name given to the early commerce between China and the fledgling United States, spanning from the end of the American Revolutionary War in 1783 to the Treaty of Wanghsia in 1844.
		Trade with China was by no means a new trend: since the voyage of Marco Polo and the days of the Silk Road, the Chinese had established a tradition of trade with the West.
		However, China, while having firm relations with Europe, was not dominated by it as the ports of the Caribbean and Atlantic were; therefore, it was an opportune destination for American merchants to establish a new trading route.

		Whereas the EU enjoyed a trade surplus with China at the beginning of the 1980s, the EU-China trade relations are now marked by a sizeable and widening EU deficit with China (around €106 billion in 2005); this is the EU's biggest bilateral trade deficit.

		China’s intellectual property rights (IPR) authorities need a better understanding of the legal framework that is necessary for IPR protection and the role of each agency within the framework.
		China’s lawmaking bodies must ensure that responsibility for IPR pro-tection is allocated among government agencies in an organized and principled way.
		The U.S. Departments of Commerce and Justice, the U.S. Trade Representative, and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office should con-tinue to host seminars to educate Chinese judges, lawmakers and police on IPR protection.

	Greenspan backs open trade with China - May 18, 2000
		In addition to bringing an end to the yearly congressional trade approval process, the bills that will be considered next week are intended to grease the skids toward China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO), though China's entry to the trade body is not contingent on congressional approval of the trade pact.
		The president has supercharged his public and private campaign to spur passage of the trade pact in recent days, and his joint appearance with Greenspan was intended to sway some of those in the House who may be undecided on the issue.
		Ways and Means approved the China trade bill by a vote of 34-4 on Wednesday, hours after the Senate Finance Committee approved its version of the bill by an 18-1 vote.

	Online NewsHour Q&A: The China Trade Debate -- May 2000
		China is also more likely to abide by multilateral WTO agreements that enjoy broad international legitimacy than bilateral agreements which inherently are much more politicized.
		Trade officials have also been more forceful in pushing through laws and regulations to conform to the requirement of WTO rules and acknowledging that the government's project-review and decision-making processes should be more transparent.
		China would be forced to blame the entire world trading community and the WTO should it lose a case--something China would find difficult to do if it is intent on becoming a respected global leader in its own right.

	Conflicting Views Hinder Dissidents on China Trade Vote
		The dueling claims are possible because the dissident community is sharply divided over whether China should have permanent trade ties with the United States, a decision many see as the most important test of American policy toward China since 1989, when Beijing ordered a bloody crackdown on democracy protesters.
		Greenspan, who was asked to speak out on China trade by Treasury Secretary Lawrence H. Summers, said he supports the bill on economic grounds.
		Legislation to create the commission is seen as essential to rounding up support for the trade bill among the large number of undecided lawmakers in both parties, many of whom say they are wary of sacrificing their annual review of China's trade status unless they create a new forum to monitor human rights.
