China War

War with China is much more likely than anyone thinks. When Athens went to war with Sparta some 2,500 years ago, the Greek historian Thucydides identified one simple cause: A rising power threatened to displace a ruling one. As the eminent Harvard scholar Graham Allison explains, in the past 500 years, great powers have found themselves in "Thucydides's Trap" 16 times. In 12 of the 16, the results have been catastrophic.

Ezra Vogel's China and Japan examines key turning points in Sino-Japanese history.

For most of its history, the People’s Republic of China limited public discussion of the war against Japan. It was an experience of victimization - and one that saw Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai-shek fighting for the same goals. But now, as China grows more powerful, the meaning of the war is changing. Rana Mitter argues that China’s reassessment of the World War II years is central to its newfound confidence abroad and to mounting nationalism at home.

My bedroom door suddenly opened. My god! The terrs are in the house?! I was reaching, ...

From Western media and think tanks to critical infrastructure and the green transition, Beijing is not ...

For decades, a major piece of World War II history has gone virtually unwritten.

Yet its drama of invasion, resistance, slaughter, and political intrigue remains little known in the West.
