LGM Podcast: China and the Big Questions of the 21st Century, Part II

Here is the second part of our podcast on China and the international order in the 21st century.  Some additional thoughts at the Diplomat:

The United States failed to stop China’s rise; indeed, it didn’t even really try.  Moreover, during the process of its rise China reformed its economy without substantially reforming its political system. Over the past 15 years, China has begun to convert economic power into military power, and now fields one of the world’s most formidable military establishments. The question has become “What impact will China’s rise have on the global order?” The best answers here seem to be that China will maintain some elements of that order, while changing others to its advantage.
