Profile of A. Doak Barnett
Pen Name : 'A. Doak Barnett'
Real Name : Arthur Doak Barnett
Born : 08 Oct 1921
Died : 17 Mar 1999 | Washington DC, Columbia
Identity: China scholar, and leading authority on U.S.–China relations
Arthur Doak Barnett (1921–1999) was an American political scientist, journalist, and one of the foremost scholars of modern China and U.S.–China relations. Widely regarded as a pioneer in China Studies, he combined first-hand experience, rigorous scholarship, and clear writing to shape Western understanding of Chinese politics and foreign policy.
Born in Shanghai to American missionary parents, Barnett grew up in China and became fluent in Chinese. After graduating from Yale University and serving in the U.S. Marine Corps during World War II, he returned to China as a journalist, reporting on the Chinese Civil War and the establishment of the People's Republic of China. His field experience became the foundation of his later academic work.
Barnett taught at Columbia University before joining the Brookings Institution and later the Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University, where he served as Professor of Chinese Studies. He played a leading role in founding the National Committee on U.S.–China Relations and consistently advocated constructive engagement between the United States and China during a period of diplomatic estrangement.
Author and editor of more than twenty books, Barnett wrote extensively on Chinese politics, foreign policy, and Sino-American relations. His scholarship, noted for its precision, balance, and clarity, remains an important reference in the fields of Chinese studies and international relations. Following his death in 1999, the National Committee established the A. Doak Barnett Essay Contest to honor his legacy and encourage young scholars working on U.S.–China relations.USEFUL LINKS : | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._Doak_Barnett
