The book explores the critical question of US-China relations, a pivotal issue of the 21st century. Graham Allison, a prominent Harvard scholar, has significantly shaped the discourse on this topic, particularly with his concept of the Thucydides Trap, which highlights the risk of conflict between a rising power and an established one during power transitions. This collection compiles Allison's insights and writings on US-China relations from 2017 to 2022, addressing the balance of power, the future trajectory of their relationship, and historical lessons for conflict avoidance. Presented in an engaging Q&A format, it incorporates interviews, articles, and dialogues between Allison and Dr. Huiyao Wang from the Center for China and Globalization, a Beijing-based think tank. The volume is enriched by an introduction and afterword from Dr. Wang, who serves as the CCG president and editor. The chapters cover topics including China's rise, the evolution of bilateral relations, the Thucydides Trap, the potential for future conflict, and pathways toward cooperation. The book ultimately seeks to provide a framework for understanding and navigating the complexities of US-China interactions.
