Add to basketThis book explores the decoupling process between the US and China from a number of perspectives. The rise of China, a country that is very different from the dominating West headed by the USA, in terms of both political systems and civilizational traditions, is profoundly unsettling for the latter. Talk of decoupling the West from China has been going on for some years now and some actions have already taken place in this direction, though attempts, such as the replacement terminology of “De-risking”, are being made on both sides to talk down the possibility. What is the current state of affairs? What is the likely prospect? This project sets out to explore these questions. This is one of the first attempts at dealing with the issue as comprehensively as possible in that it is not only cross- and inter-disciplinary but also in that scholars from both the global South and North and both the East and West are participants, and will interest scholars of Chinese politics and international political relations.
Mobo Gao, Professor of Chinese Studies at Adelaide University, has extensive experience at various universities in China, UK, US and Australia. He is known as a prolific author with several books and numerous articles and book chapters and for his insight into Chinese politics, Chinese language, culture and society, as well as Chinese migration to Australia and the mass media.

Baohui Xie, a Scholarly Teaching Fellow at Adelaide University, has extensive experience in global finance. His diverse research interests encompass Chinese politics, economics, media, religion, and language. Dr Xie is also an advanced-level interpreter accredited in China and a NAATI-certified translator for English and Chinese in both directions.
