Recommendation

As the US’s economy retreats, the economies of Asian nations, notably China, shift into hyperdrive, with some experiencing double-digit growth. Must the rise of Asia and China mean America’s fall? Simon S.C. Tay, a Singaporean professor and intellectual, explains why Asia and America must work together. Asia and China need US leadership, he says, and the US needs Asia’s markets and resources. Tay believes that America and Asia must come together in the future as international partners. getAbstract recommends his informative book to anyone who wants to understand the future’s most crucial international relationship – the US-Chinese nexus.

Take-Aways

  • While Asia is not a unified economic entity at present, it can become the world’s most promising economic region.
  • Asia’s current incomplete economy has limits on its potential innovation, growth and investment cooperation.
  • As Asia and China expand economically, the US faces a less influential role in the emerging multipolar world.
