Chimerica - the pivotal relationship between the United States and China
Course full. To go onto the waiting list, please click here
As the 21st century progresses it is increasingly clear that the United States and China will dominate the world politically, economically and militarily. While the U.S. is clearly still the most powerful country, China is moving up quickly on all fronts. This does not have to be bad. If these two giants can work co-operatively to provide global leadership it may be preferable to solely Western leadership or a chaotic leaderless global system. But can they work together? What would it take, and what would it look like? What would the alternative of non co-operation mean? In this course we will explore why the U.S. and China might cooperate and why they might not, and the implications of either scenario.
