Over the past three decades, no area of U.S. foreign policy has been more dramatic than the opening and development of relations with the People's Republic of China. And on no policy subject has the National Security Council played a more central role. From Henry Kissinger's secret journey to Beijing in July 1971 to Anthony Lake's trip a quarter century later in the wake of military confrontation in the Taiwan Straits, the assistant to the president for national security affairs has personally played a leading role. All governments take it particularly seriously when the American president sends his personal aide to them on a negotiating mission. The Chinese government has particularly invited, and welcomed, such White House engagement in diplomacy.

From its inception, the National Security Council has addressed economic issues: two of its first four meetings, held in 1947, focused on exports to the USSR. But while trade and finance have been key components of U.S. foreign policy, they also have had substantial impact on citizen welfare at home. This impact has increased with the growing internationalization of the U.S. economy. Hence, from the early 1970s, NSC jurisdiction over international economic matters has been challenged by individuals and institutions concerned with domestic economic policy. In the Clinton administration, this was manifested by the creation of the National Economic Council paralleling the NSC, and by the coordination of international economic policy through a combined staff reporting to the national security adviser and the national economic adviser.
