There has been no more critical time in US-Sino relations since 1949. China is challenging the status quo in the Pacific region and the hegemony the United States has enjoyed since the end of World War II.  Michael Auslin’s newest book, Asia’s Geopolitics, prepares us for what we need to know. His collection of essays explore the breadth of geopolitical dangers that will inform and educate the future of the Indo Pacific.

Please join us for a vibrant discussion on the current geopolitical competition in Asia which threatens the future role of the United States in the region and ultimately our peace and prosperity.
