China, America, and the future of the Pacific

Summary

Haddick maintains that within a decade China will have the military power to place U.S. influence throughout East Asia at risk. To avoid a future crisis, the United States needs to fashion a new and more competitive strategy, one that better matches the strengths of the United States and its allies against China's vulnerabilities. He proposes far-reaching changes to U.S. diplomacy, military programs, and strategies to counter China's well-designed military modernization plan
