Considering the imbalance among various elements affecting the Sino-USA relation, the remarkable value of ideology among international relations, as well as the special existing significance of the ideology between China and USA, also plus the features of academic and professional research orientation, the thesis emphasizes the research on the issue of interactive relation between the ideology and USA's China Policy based on the research of the ideology in Sino-USA relation, it also re-arranges, measure and assesses the logic cause of the act of USA's China policy, operating mechanism and political impact, and finally provides theoretical advice for China's foreign strategy and relevant foreign policy.Part 1 Ideology and USA Diplomacy1 Connotation, Structure and Function of IdeologyAcademic analysis to special connotation, structure and function of ideology from the angle of international politics is the academic precondition of the thesis research. The thesis, based on the confirmation and analysis of the basic connotation of ideology as well as structuralism, mainly analyzes the following three aspects of ideology, i.e. imperialism ideology, religionism ideology, nationalism ideology. According to the enlightenment of historical culture, the thesis emphasizes that ideology is categorized into social history field, representing an attribute of historical culture.

It is necessary to point that, in the total chains of USA ideology, there always exists a core and an ultimate ending point, i.e. state benefit. State benefit is both the rightful content of USA political ideology as well as the logic origin of the formation implementation and revision of USA foreign policy.3 Historical Tradition of USA Foreign PolicyBased on the time period from 1776 to World War II, the thesis measures and researches the historical tradition of USA foreign policy according to four kinds of logic thoughts and technical lines.
