An Analysis of the Theme Evolution of the Biden Administration's Export Controls to China and China's Countermeasures
In October 2022,the Biden administration released the first report"National Security Strategy",clearly aiming to meet China's challenges and using the"Comprehensive Deterrence Law"to strategically"Compete"against China,the US's Geo-political and e-conomic competitor.Export controls are crucial tools for the US government to achieve this goal.This article uses open-source materials,such as the official documents of the Biden administration from 2021 to 2022,through quantitative analytical methods,such as social net-work analysis and text mining method,to systematically analyze the overall situation of Biden administration's export controls against Chi-na.The results show that"Technology","military","supply chain",and"Xinjiang"are the focus of the Biden administration's export control over China,and evolve alternately over time.The Biden administration has almost continued the export control policies from the Trump administration.Besides,the Biden administration also attaches importance to the linkage between export controls and other sanction tools,further strengthening the alliance with other countries to build a"de-China"high-tech industry supply chain alliance.
