More DescriptionCompetition between America and China has intensified since 2009, creating even greater risks of conflict. Why is this so and what can be done about it? This book identifies the mistakes China and America made in their mutual relations and explain their causes and consequences. Drawing on international relations theory and historical lessons they develop a holistic approach to conflict management and resolution.
