\"ChinaChina is primarily seen as a threatening rival superpower to the United States, especially in the context of U.S. relations and alliances in the Asia-Pacific. \u00a0In his new book The China Challenge: \u00a0Shaping the Choice of a Rising Power<\/em>, Thomas J. Christensen argues against this zero-sum vision. \u00a0On the contrary, he explains and examines a new paradigm in which the U.S. must dissuade China from instigating regional aggression while still encouraging the country’s participation in regional and global order. \u00a0Drawing on decades of scholarship and experience as a senior diplomat, Christensen offers a compelling new\u00a0assessment of U.S.-China relations that is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of the globalized world.<\/p>\n

\"Tom-Christensen-c-Woodrow-Wilson-School-Princeton-University_300dpi\"<\/a>Professor Christensen is William P. Boswell Professor of World Politics of Peace and War and\u00a0Director of the China and the World Program at Princeton University. \u00a0His research and teaching focus on\u00a0China\u2019s foreign relations, the international relations of East Asia, and international security.<\/p>\n

Please join us and Professor Christensen for BU CSA’s first event of the Fall 2015 semester on Monday, September 14, from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m.<\/strong> as we discuss the challenges faced by the U.S. and China in the present and future.<\/p>\n
