On April 6, the Center for China and Globalization (CCG) hosted a virtual dialogue between Professor Graham T. Allison, the founding dean of Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government and author of Destined for War: Can America and China Escape Thucydides‘ Trap? and President of CCG, Dr. Wang Huiyao, joined by Professor Li Chen, director of Center for International Security and Strategy at School of International Studies, Remin University of China. Topics discussed included great power competition in historical perspective, new paradigms to escape the Thucydides Trap, US-China relations after Anchorage and the global war against Covid-19 and climate change.

As Prof. Allison pointed out, this is going to be a fierce competition between the U.S. and China. It is like when the Olympics occur, each will fill the team and will be seeking to win as much gold as they can. But, we are also compelled to cooperate to avoid destructive affects.
