Summary

This study consists of an aggregate attributes data file and a perception-interaction data file on the Soviet Union and China in the period 1950-1967. The study was part of a project concerned with the Sino-Soviet conflict and its implications for United States' strategic planning in the 1970s. The aggregate attributes data file (Part 1) contains two subsets: (1) measures of economic, demographic, military, and diplomatic national attributes of the Soviet Union and China in the period 1950-1967, and (2) trade of and visits by leaders of the Soviet Union and China with 17 less developed nations in the period 1959-1967. The perception-interaction data file (Part 2) also consists of two subsets: (1) a perception dataset, which contains information obtained by computer content analyses of selected official statements and newspaper contents utilizing Inquirer II, and (2) an interaction dataset that measures Sino-Soviet diplomatic, communications, and trade interactions with each other in the period 1950-1967. Items in the perception subset dataset include the perceptions of the Soviet Union and China of each other and of the United States coded as strong, weak, active, passive, negative, and threatening. Each of these perceptions is presented in the original and weighted forms.
