Summary / Abstract (Note) | After a 30-year interregnum, the Cold War is back, or at least that’s what many now argue.1 The 2017 Trump administration National Security Strategy portrayed China squarely as a “revisionist” power, alongside Russia, that seeks “to shape a world antithetical to U.S. values and interests.”2 In a series of four carefully coordinated speeches last summer, senior Trump officials cast the Chinese threat in distinctly Cold War terms. National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien described Chinese President Xi Jinping as Josef Stalin’s successor. |
