After three decades of deflation and stagnation, Japan is showing new signs of vigour, including price and wage hikes and a stock market hitting heights not seen since the late 1980s. Meanwhile China is experiencing a ‘Japanication’, with deflation, massive debt overhang from a real estate crisis and drops in FDI, employment and consumer sentiment not to mention trade and geo-political friction with the U.S. With an aging and shrinking population, is China headed for its own lost decades? Can Japan shake off its past and sustain its current recovery?

The contest between America and China is global and unbridgeable, and it encompasses all major instruments of statecraft: diplomacy, technology, military power, intelligence, trade and investment. How we manage this contest will determine not only whether there is still space for international cooperation to deal with our many global challenges, from the climate emergency to the technological revolution, but also who gets to dominate the twenty-first century and, quite simply, the course of all our futures.
