China and the Art of Peace
How The Light Gets In Festival 2022 Special Event Enodo Economics director of geopolitical and intelligence analysis Nigel Inkster took part in ‘How The Light Gets In’ Festival Description The rise of China has for decades been watched from the West with mistrust. With Xi Jinping making belligerent moves from the South China Sea to the Indian border, tensions have been mounting. Then in February, China and Russia announced a new global order and endorsed respective territorial ambitions in Taiwan and Ukraine. Days later Russia invaded. With Xi declaring to ‘reunite China’ by any means necessary, the threat is overt. The ancient Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu declared ‘in peace prepare for war’. Should this be Western strategy? Should the West go further and extend sanctions to China? And how should the West respond if China either directly aids Russia in Ukraine or embarks on its own military adventure? Or are…

The Great Decoupling: China, America and the Struggle for Technological Supremacy
Will China’s drive to achieve global technological dominance unravel the world order? Book Get a copy of the revised edition (May 2023) of The Great Decoupling by Nigel Inkster here. For much of recorded history, China was a leading science and technology power. But just as the West rose, China turned in on itself and missed the Industrial Revolution. The result was the ‘Hundred Years of Humiliation’, and a long struggle for a modern, yet distinctly Chinese, civilisational identity. Today, technological innovation has returned to the core of national pride and ambition. Since the 1980s, reforms have transformed China into the world’s second largest economy and a major global power. Cyber space and other advanced technologies have become a battleground for international dominance; but today’s world relies on global supply chains and interstate collaboration – at least for now. Growing tension between the USA and China could result in the…
