The Great Sea Change: Rightfully Changing American Perceptions Of China Made The New Cold War Almost Inevitable

By John C. Hulsman

27 July 2021

In this paper we discuss:

1. The theoretical and ideological background that has underpinned the US position vs China in the last 40 years;
2. How China has moved from being a partner of the US, to become a competitor and finally a rival;
3. How the usually-divided US political system has found unity in considering China the next great rival;
4. Why the rise of China's middle class has not led to greater democratisation of the political system;
5. How the US is trying to rebuild its system of alliances to slow down China's rise; and
6. Why the US has a geo-strategic advantage but a geo-economic dis-advantage vs China.
