A Text Mining Analysis of the U.S.-China Joint Statement in 2009 Based on Network

In recent years, much research has been devoted to the analysis of the U.S.-China relationship. However, few have deployed the content analysis of the joint statements between both countries in order to grasp the change of the relationship in different time frames. In fact, grasping the trend of the U.S.-China relationship is imperative for academic researchers and policy makers. In this paper, we analyze the trend of the U.S.-China relationship by means of applying the text mining analysis to joint statements in the year of 2009. The contribution of the study includes the following two points. First, the study has found the focus of joint statement. Second, the study finds a new way of literature survey in diplomatic studies.
