B ehind the bluster of two powerful leaders, Donald Trump and Xi Jinping, was an undercurrent of shared vulnerability and global ambition. For America’s 45th president, China was the lightning rod in his campaign to make America great again. For China’s fifth generation leader, it was all about the rejuvenation of the Chinese Dream after a century of humiliation.
A remarkable book. Accidental Conflict offers a wealth of evidence about and a new depth of understanding of the underlying forces that drive the Chinese and United States economies. —Robert Shiller, Nobel Laureate and author
Accidental Conflict is a very important and timely book. Its arguments and analyses have the potential to change misperceptions by policymakers and analysts on both sides and avoid a dangerous and mutually destructive course. —Laura D. Tyson, former Chair, White House Council of Economic Advisers
