In his book World on the Brink: How America Can Beat China in the Race for the 21st Century ([ Ссылка ])  (PublicAffairs, 2024), Dmitri Alperovitch ([ Ссылка ])  (with Garrett M. Graff) argues that the United States is in a “Cold War II” with China, and lays out a set of policy recommendations for how the US can win this new Cold War.


Alperovitch is currently the Founder and Executive Chairman of Silverado Policy Accelerator ([ Ссылка ]) , a think tank focused on “advancing American prosperity and global leadership in the 21st century and beyond.” Before moving into the think tank world, Alperovitch was the CTO and co-founder of CrowdStrike, a multi-billion dollar cybersecurity company that gained public attention for investigating the 2016 DNC email leaks and 2014’s North Korean hack of Sony Pictures.


Through his work at CrowdStrike and McAfee before that, Alperovitch was involved in investigating numerous Chinese cyber-intrusions into US and global institutions, for instance Operation Aurora ([ Ссылка ])  and Operation Shady RAT ([ Ссылка ]) . Alperovitch’s cybersecurity expertise has also led him to advise numerous US government institutions including the Department of Defense and Department of Homeland Security.


Drawing from his experiences across the private and public sectors, Alperovitch injects World on the Brink with incisive analyses and historical precedents that should spark the interest of those who follow US-China competition.
