Asia's Reckoning: The Struggle For Global Dominance

'Stunningly good' Michael Burleigh Evening Standard Books of the Year 2017The dramatic story of the relationship between the world's three largest economies one that is shaping the future of us all by one of the foremost experts on east AsiaFor more than half a century American power in the Pacific has successfully kept the peace But it has also cemented the tensions in the toxic rivalry between China and Japan consumed with endless history wars and entrenched political dynasties Now the combination of these forces with Donald Trump's unpredictable impulses and disdain for America's old alliances threatens to upend the region and accelerate the unravelling of the postwar order If the United States helped lay the postwar foundations for modern Asia now the anchor of the global economy
Asia's Reckoning will reveal how that structure is now crumblingWith unrivalled access to archives in the US and Asia as well as many of the major players in all three countries Richard McGregor has written a tale which blends the tectonic shifts in diplomacy with the domestic political trends and personalities driving them It is a story not only of an overstretched America but also of the rise and fall and rise of the great powers of Asia The confrontational course on which China and Japan have increasingly set themselves is no simple spat between neighbors And the fallout would be a political and economic tsunami affecting manufacturing centers trade routes and political capitals on every continent
