China, the United States, and the Challenges of a New World Order
The development of China as an economic and political powerhouse has generated serious concerns in Washington and the West in general.
The development of China as an economic and political powerhouse has generated serious concerns in Washington and the West in general. The view that, as a developing nation, China would morph into some sort of capitalist democracy was assumed. This was a profound miscalculation. In fact all the norms of the "Washington Consensus," the western rules-based order, are now being challenged. Join Osher at Dartmouth in Lebanon to examine the evolution of this "rules-based order" driven by western interests and how the dynamics of 3rd world nations (referred to as “the Global South") and China challenge the post World War II western consensus.
