In a time of accelerating geopolitics and a historic global power shift, the future will be decided by US-China relations-the defining great power competition of our era. Dragon vs. Eagle explains the forces behind the U.S.-China rivalry (US China rivalry) and why many analysts call it a new China-US cold war. Drawing on economic data, history, and strategy, this book maps the 21st-century world order taking shape: China's rise, America's decline in key industries, and the choices both nations face.
Inside, you'll discover:
- How manufacturing offshoring hollowed out the U.S.-and how China filled the vacuum.
- Semiconductors, rare earths, AI, and supply chains: the real leverage in US China competition.
- Demographics, ideology, and national identity-why institutions, not slogans, decide outcomes.
- Taiwan, the South China Sea, and energy chokepoints: where escalation risks are highest.
- What a sustainable balance looks like-and how investors, policymakers, and citizens can prepare.
Clear, non-partisan, and evidence-driven, Dragon vs. Eagle is for readers of international relations, foreign policy, and geopolitics who want a practical roadmap to what comes next in US-China relations.
