The geopolitical contest between China and the U.S. will shape the world over the next few decades. It is a simultaneously inevitable and avoidable dynamic, the result of a rising China, poor communication between the two, and little natural empathy. What are the structural forces driving this contest? What mistakes did both sides make? And what are the potential solutions? These questions will be answered on September 29th, 2020 at 7 PM ET by Prof. Kishore Mahbubani, a diplomat and scholar with unrivaled access to policymakers in Beijing and Washington. He was twice Singapore’s Ambassador to the UN and also former President of the United Nations Security Council (Jan 2001 and May 2002).
