This paper will attempt to show that in three years from 1957 to 1960 the influence of the People’s Republic of China in the Mongolian People’s Republic was steadily waning, and to follow the events of this deterioration of influence. At the same time, this subject offers a unique opportunity to study the interaction of China and the Soviet Union in the quest for influence.
Although a number of sources have been utilized, the main research has been done with translations from Chinese and Soviet newspapers and new agency releases. Because of the paucity of information dealing with the recent period of Outer Mongolian history, it has been necessary to speculate on the importance of a number of incidents, and small events take on a much larger meaning only when viewed in the light of a continuing process of lessening Chinese influence in Outer Mongolia.
