The article is dedicated to the factor of the global antagonism and regional divergences between the USA and the PRC through the American political scientists’ views research. The issue’s evolution is traced — from the peripheral perception of the China component in the G. Bush-jr.’s administration foreign policy to the radical bias of the foreign policy studies’ attention focus to the Asian-Pacific region events during the B. Obama presidentship. The researchers’ views classification is also given in the article. The main goal is to observe the differences between the various geopolitical approaches among the American scholars to the issue of China-US global and regional antagonism, and liken their forecasts as for US-PRC bilateral relationships’ future and its impact on the international relationships’ further development. It’s given the main characteristics of scientific optimistic and pessimistic approaches to the issue of the relations between key actors in the Asian-Pacific region. The analytical thoughts of the prominent Americal politicions, such as H. Kissinger, are also given in the article. The scholars’ ideas have their reflection in the official U. S. documents and have a great influence on the process of the national strategy building. That is why the main positions of the state papers, accepted after B. Obama was elected as the U. S. President in 2008, were also analyzed in the article.
