Abstract: "On July 12, 2010, the Middle East Program, the Asia Program and the Kissinger Institute on China and the United States at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars co-hosted a two-panel conference to consider China's role in the Persian Gulf, changing views from within the Gulf on China's expanded presence in the region, and what this presence means for the United States. The essays in this volume were originally papers presented at that conference."--Page 3.
