Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: The Self-Doubting Superpower: America's Global Position Under Scrutiny
- The USA faces a period of self-doubt and political uncertainty as many Americans believe their country is in decline. Despite a strong position in many areas such as economy and technology, the USA faces new challenges, particularly from emerging powers like China.
- The USA remains a leading economic power with significant global strength. Despite some structural issues like high debt, the USA leads in many areas and has a healthy demographic future, unlike other developed countries.
- The USA is confronted with a changing international landscape where other countries like China and Russia are expanding their power and influence. The USA must bolster its alliances and play a central role in sustaining the international system.
- The greatest foe to the international order is not China or Russia, but the USA itself if it retreats from its leading role in the world out of fear of its own decline. A US retreat would create power vacuums worldwide and encourage undesirable actors to exploit the resulting disorder.

Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: Fantasy of Harmony: The Eternal Competition Between America and China
- As U.S.-Chinese relations deteriorate more than in the last 50 years, an old tale resurfaces: If only the United States spoke more with China and enabled its rise, the two countries could live in peace.
- Some analysts argue the United States and China could potentially strike a significant deal through dialogue, establishing stable spheres of influence and something akin to a G-2 to address global issues such as climate change and pandemics.
- The United States made repeated attempts to collaborate with China, yet Chinese leaders consistently saw these efforts as insidious containment, aiming to weaken the grip of the Chinese Communist Party and force China into economic and political subservience to the West.
- To achieve this, the United States and its allies must deter Chinese aggression in the short term and avoid concessions that disrupt positive long-term trends.
