¶ … rise of China in terms of its economy and military capability and in relation to the United States of America's national interest. Thou many have viewed this to be a threat to the U.S., but it isn't so, particularly to its' national interest with respect to China.
Despite of the fact that currently the relationship that exists between the U.S. And China is not as good as compared to the one that exited with the Bush administration, both countries have to work jointly in matters where they both have common interest. The research recommends that the U.S. foreign policy towards China be one that's aimed at seeking cooperation between both countries which will at the end be able to secure U.S. national interest with respect to China (Walt, 1998, p 41).
U.S. national interest in China

US national interest with respect to China was noted recently when Mr. Gates who is the country's defense secretary was addressing a meeting attended by other defense ministers at Hanoi. The Minister was quoted as saying "the U.S. had national interest in freedom of navigation," this statement was aimed at addressing the dispute involving China and its neighbors on accessibility of sea waters around the region and resources endowed in it. Categorically this matter is of extreme importance to the U.S. national interest in its quest of encouraging application of international laws that give rights to each and every country to operate and navigate on international waters without any hindrance; it also seeks to encourage the well being of friendly nations and U.S. allies by protecting them from external aggression.
According to research conducted by Bergsten et al. (2008, p 256), the other national interest which U.S. has on China includes; establishment of a strong relationship between her and China whom it considers a strategic adversary, this is rated as a vital U.S. national interest. An extremely important U.S. national interest with respect to China is the establishment of a peaceful relationship between China and Japan which will be of benefit to the U.S. Walt (1998, p 41), studies have also shown that China's continued improvement on democracy and liberalization of their market are among other important national interests that U.S. has on it as this would be able to offer to them market for goods, services and foreign direct investments from the U.S.

Constructivism theory is socially based and is best described by Walt (1998, p 41), as social constructivism which considers ideas, socio-cultural identities and collective values as factors that shape international politics. Threats, identities, goals, fears and other factors viewed as real have a direct influence on state organs and they form the basic principles of this theory which Walt (1998, p 41), believes had greater influence on the rise of China.
