{"product_id":"9781533302199","title":"Warning Order: China Prepares for Conflict, and Why We Must Do the Same","description":"Ever since Richard Nixon opened relations with Communist China, Chinese intentions have been a matter of incessant and often fevered speculation in this country. In particular, national security and regional experts, non-governmental organizations and office-holders alike have endlessly debated whether the People's Republic of China could be brought into a U.S.-dominated international order and world economy in a manner consistent with American interests.\u003cp\u003eThe Center for Security Policy commissioned Warning Order: China Prepares for Conflict and Why We Must Do the Same to address these urgent questions. This book explains how, under successive regimes - and most especially that of the incumbent Chinese ruler, Xi Jinping - the Chinese have relentlessly strived to put themselves in a position to challenge, and ultimately to displace, the post-World War II Pax Americana with a new order that would return China to what they considered to be its rightful place as the Middle Kingdom, the preeminent global power strategically and economically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis series of essays by 10 leading U.S. national security experts documents from their various perspectives and fields of expertise a reality that can no longer be safely ignored: China is putting itself in a position to engage in conflict with the United States across a broad front and potentially with decisively devastating results. Our hope is that this book will move our nation past a now-irrelevant debate about Chinese intentions and onto a footing rooted in a focus on capabilities, one that enables us to deter the PRC's future use of existing, and anticipated, threats to our security and vital interests.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039726452976,"sku":"9781533302199","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781533302199_p0.jpg?v=1763742963","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781533302199","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
