One of the most striking passages from my recent email interview with Graham Allison, author of Destined for War Can America and China Escape Thucidydes Trap?, was his description of how Washington views Chinas rise.

Kristol also asks Cowen about the Thucidydes Trap and the prospect of conflict between the US and China. Cowen professes guarded optimism, but the terms of that optimism invite careful consideration Im not by any means convinced that conflict is inevitable. I dont believe in the Thucidydes Trap, and heres why not. North Korea so far has been Chinas thorn in our side. I feel thats flipped. Chinese public opinion has flipped. Opinion within th…
