Bully of Asia: Why China's Dream is the New Threat to World Order
By Steven W. Mosher
What You'll Learn:
Many academics and politicians downplay the threat China poses to global stability, but historian and China expert Steve Mosher argues that we turn a blind eye at our own peril, and that China—the progenitor of totalitarianism—has for millennia seen global rule as its right and its destiny. The problems with China are not over trade or cyber security, but a fundamental conflict of values that reaches back thousands of years.
Key Insights:
- China’s goal is to bring “everything under heaven” into its orbit.
- The United States and China are following a trajectory that, historically, has escalated in armed conflict.
- Idealist rhetoric of peace through talks and treaties is more palatable, but less realistic.
- China is refashioning its failed socialist image as an ultra-nationalistic religion.
- America must not fade into the global backdrop, especially as China looks to expand its reach.
