The backdrop to the escalating US-China trade — and what gives it a salience our squabbles with the EU, Mexico, and Canada lack — is the sense that China is not only an economic rival but also an ideological and military threat. And, exacerbating concerns, the sense that China is rising inexorably, so much so that just as the 20th was “America’s century,” the 21st will belong to China.
So with this on the mind, it seems a good time to revisit my 2017 conversation with Asia expert Michael Auslin, author of “The End of the Asian Century: War, Stagnation, and the Risks to the World’s Most Dynamic Region.” In this episode we discuss his book, the past and future of the Asian economies, how the US should respond to China’s rise, and much more. Find the transcript of our conversation on AEI’s blog, here.
