The Collision Course: America and China's Dangerous Dance
The world is entering what Kevin Rudd calls "the decade of living dangerously" - a period when U.S.-China tensions have escalated to their highest point in generations. This isn't just another foreign policy challenge; it's potentially the defining geopolitical relationship of our century. What makes Rudd's analysis so compelling is his rare combination of insider access and cultural fluency. As a Mandarin-speaking former Prime Minister who has met personally with Xi Jinping, Rudd offers insights few Western observers can match. The stakes couldn't be higher: these two superpowers possess the world's largest economies and most powerful militaries, yet they increasingly view each other through lenses of suspicion and strategic rivalry. The fundamental question isn't whether competition will continue - it's whether that competition can be managed without spiraling into catastrophic conflict.
