Where Next for US-China Relations?

By Banning Garrett

The change in leaders in China is perhaps less significant than a new administration taking power in the United States, especially if the new US administration is from the party previously out of power. Xi Jinping has been part of the ruling administration for years. There will be new faces taking Politburo and Standing Committee […]

China Pivot or Pirouette?

By Arnaud de Borchgrave

Amid the gazillion blogs, tweets, Facebookies and LinkedIn aficionados, it has become even harder to find reasoned and convincing arguments for what kind of military drawdown would do least harm to the United States’ global posture. Even learned think tanks are tweeting. Retired admirals and generals, professors and journalists, everyone is weighing in with elite […]

As China Rises, A New US Strategy

By Zbigniew Brzezinski

A great power that allows itself to be preoccupied only with the problems of today is likely to end up mired in the conflicts of yesterday. A great power must be guided by a longer-range strategic vision.

Thinking Outside the Bilateral Box: Global Challenges and the China-U.S. Relationship

By Banning Garrett

To foresee and help navigate the future relationship over the next 20 years and beyond between China and the United States, the two countries need to think outside the U.S.-China bilateral box.
