The twenty-first century's great geopolitical contest has begun. A
major trade war has broken out. American and Chinese naval vessels
are having close encounters in the South China Sea. American
congressmen and businessmen are cheering their government's public
attacks on China. China is standing firm and resolute. Who will win
this contest? What is at stake? And who will judge the winner? In
this book, Kishore Mahbubani evaluates the two sides, and shows how
China has been thinking on a global scale, launching ambitious
initiatives under some of the world's most pragmatic and competent
leaders. Most critically, the Chinese people have regained their
cultural confidence. Chinese society is now infused with innovation
and dynamism. Meanwhile, America has seen the power of its economic
model badly damaged by the 2008 financial crisis. To many it is no
longer the indispensable nation but an awkward interloper. The
global rise of China and the relative strategic decline of the US
presents a political challenge that the US has never faced before.
American policymakers must shake off their complacency and launch a
major strategic reboot of both domestic and foreign policies that
have weakened the nation's social foundations and global standing.
Otherwise, the start-up nation, barely two hundred and fifty years
old, with only a quarter of China's population, cannot expect to
defeat the world's oldest continuous civilization. With his
trademark candor, Mahbubani delivers impartial and incisive
insights on the strategic stakes and mistakes in this new great
game.
