    After 35 years of virtually uninterrupted growth, China has hit an inflection point.  The three primary reasons that created more than three decades of growth either no longer exist or are disappearing fast

  • What the White House should do when China's Xi Jinping visits Washington

    Published February 13, 2012

    There is scant evidence that having good personal ties with China’s supreme leaders has ever helped America get what it wanted from Beijing.

  • Will China Launch a Nuclear 9/11?

    Published September 09, 2011

    Beijing, unfortunately, may be approaching the world much like Moscow did in the turbulent 1950s. The Chinese have hundreds of nukes, and we have assumed we could deter them just as we deterred the Soviets.

  • Biden's Trip to China Makes U.S. Look Weak, Not Strong

    Published August 18, 2011

    Published April 25, 2011

    Senior Chinese leaders are certainly trying to be more coercive and coercion limits political discourse, but repression in China’s forward-looking society is losing its effectiveness. And as it loses its effectiveness, an important change in the thinking of Chinese people is occurring: they are becoming defiant.

  • Marx Is Long Dead But China's Leaders Love Marxism More Than Ever

    Published March 14, 2011

    The return to Marxist words by China's leaders in recent years is more than a rhetorical flourish, unfortunately. Hu Jintao and his premier, Wen Jiabao, have steered the Chinese economy back to the past.

  • Yes, Virginia, North Korea Has Many More Uranium Facilities

    Published December 15, 2010

    Why are Washington and Seoul apparently taking a new tack on North Korea? Perhaps both countries think this is a way to put pressure on Beijing to do something about its murderous North Korean ally.

  • The One Thing You Need to Know About Lui Xiaobo's Nobel Peace Prize

    Published December 10, 2010
