U.S.-China Rivalry in a Neomedieval World: Security in an Age of Weakening States

by Timothy R. Heath, Weilong Kong, Alexis Dale-Huang

Since about 2000, the world has been in a period that mixes some aspects of modern life and a much more substantial attenuation of others and features weakening states, fragmenting societies, imbalanced economies, pervasive threats, and the informalization of warfare. This report examines how the U.S.-China rivalry might unfold in this neomedieval era. Many theories about why and how great powers compete will need to be reconsidered.

Severely underrated. An excellent primer to anyone interested in neo-medievalism.
