N /[ OST DISCUSSIONS of the great-power triangle have tended to lVI focus primarily on the strategic postures of the two superpowers-the U.S. and the Soviet Union-and little has been said about the Chinese position. The purpose of this paper is to analyze various aspects of the P.R.C.'s view of and role in tripolar politics in the period since Mao Zedong's death. It will be divided into two parts: first it will examine the pattern of Beijing's strategic planning in recent years for signs of alterations in the Chinese defense posture; it will then focus on the political factors associated with the military ones already discussed in order to present a more complete picture of possible changes in policy. Since Sino-Soviet relations stand out in the triangular pattern as the major area for possible improvement, the analysis will place special emphasis on those ties
